The Miniatures Page
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Miniatures Page, also known as TMP, was created in 1994 by Bill Armintrout, former editor-in-chief and art director at Steve Jackson Games (GURPS), and a designer for the BioForge and Pacific Strike video games. What began as a small miniature wargaming internet magazine, has since evolved into the internet’s largest virtual community of wargamers. Currently The Miniature Page boasts over 13,000 members from approximately 50 countries, with discussions taking place in 6 separate languages.
The Miniatures Page members include gamers, retailers, game designers, sculptors, authors, and historians, whose interests cover historical, fantasy, and science fiction gaming. The community is dedicated to promoting the hobby through distributing industry news, product reviews, “how to” articles, convention promotion, and historical discussion. The Miniatures Page has been noted on the Society of Ancients and the Historical Miniatures Gaming Society websites to be an excellent source of information on wargaming.
