  • Go into the video next…
  • Infantus23: Can you talk about myth journeyman miniature fulfillment? There’s over 100 individual minis needed to be made and in your last update you had mentioned I think 7 that were ready to be made. At that pace it seems it’s going to take 2-3 more years to fulfill. Is that accurate or is the production pace going to quicken?
