Joel,
That is a great suggestion !! I had thought of making a
very large microfig battlefield but even having 1 minifg to
represent every 1000, that's a total of 170 minifigs. Ouch !
But with the super microfig scale and doing diorama scenes,
I could probably get away with less but still do a good job
of it. Also, I can probably make multiple battlefield
sandboxes for different phases of the battle.
I can already visualize the post battle diorama with
all the daimyos sitting around the Tokugawa curtain wall
and viewing the heads of opponents. Good deal !
