"Today I tackle a question that has been bugging me every time I slide my painted regiments across the wargames table: have movie directors subtly corrupted the way designers write charge mechanics? We have all spent years absorbing cinematic epics where thousands of digital warriors break rank, sprint across wide fields, and crash together like runaway freight trains. It looks fantastic on the big screen, but when those exact visual tropes bleed into our rulebooks, it completely distorts our understanding of historical battlefield doctrine…" BigLee's 'Miniature Adventures' link
