I'm not one for mini's but this new article over at WotC caught my eye as it features none other than Ryld Argith of War of the Spider Queen fame:

Nice catch, Rad . I've been waiting for this article for a while now.

Thanks for the link.

I'm disappointed that there is no Realms relevance to this article. It's basically just a bunch of stats, which i'm sure appeals to those using mini's, but I just expected a little more at a first glance at the article title.

Well in fairness to WOTC, if their marketing tells them that the vast majority of purchasers for these minis are interested in just that, stats only...

Besides when did Ryld have any time, before he you know what, to pose for a mini? I suspect doppleganger.

Oh I agree, mini's ARE about stats , but i'd just have liked to have seen something with a Realms mention in this article

Perhaps we should write up our own interpretation of the WotC Marketing Policy, just for a laugh. It should be fairly simple to do, just make reference to a lot of stats, PrCs, feats, and the like, and (nearly) everyone should be happy...

Hey, don't forget to include something about utterly ignoring what customers actually want, especially those who have been customers since TSR was going strong...
