Having discovered Avalon Hill’s wargames and identified sources for them, my friends and I spent several years happily buying and playing their expanding list of titles even as the company underwent its own changes. During this time, I also discovered wargaming with miniatures, which would eventually become my principal hobby gaming interest. I was in Junior High School (aka Middle School) when a schoolmate displayed a number of his painted miniature figures in our local library and then at our school (major nerd points back in the 1960s). These were painted plastic figures from Airfix and included some that had been converted to appear as something else. I had seen these HO scale figures in the local hobby shop where I was buying model kits of airplanes, tanks, and ships but hadn’t realized until these displays that there were people using these for wargaming in my area. Certainly, I had owned toy soldiers (including a Rin Tin Tin western fort and a World War II set) but I had never subjected them to wargames in any serious form.
