I must have killed thousands of those things in the 80s.

little mens?

i'm sure that some of you are wondering where the hell i pulled "little mens" from.

part of the idea for the title is from h.g. wells' 1913 ruleset little wars or as was properly titled: little wars: a game for boys from twelve years of age to one hundred and fifty and for that more intelligent sort of girl who likes boys' games and books.

not that we wish to impugn any woman's intellect by assuming that an interest in something other than wargames or boys' games makes her less intelligent.

for the morbidly curious, one can find the full text of little wars at project gutenberg.

the other part of the name is from a friend's wife who calls his collection of toy soldiers his "little mans".
