I used to make almost this same joke when I used to sell Warhammer. I would tell people they could proxy pieces of their army with grandma's hummel collection
D&D players: "This origami is fine as a mini, Dave!"
MTG players: "Proxies are fine as long as they're not counterfeits or at sanctioned events."
WH40k players: "YOU HAVE TO USE OFFICIAL GW MINIS AND PROPERLY PAINT THEM!!! YOU CAN'T JUST 3D PRINT THINGS YOU MONSTER!!!"
Ian can I talk you into commenting on the morality of these sanctions given they may encourage over use of violent war gaming?
