&gt; I think a lot of people into miniatures gaming prefer the three-dimensionalty (and, for free-movement games) freedom of miniatures as compared to other alternatives (e.g., gridded boards) and would be happy with distinguishable-but-less-detailed models.<p>Sounds like a rather rare combination of tastes to me. I don&#x27;t see anyone selling to this niche which suggests the market is small.
