Which are priced far above what miniatures ought to cost.  Have you
actually looked at what the singles cost?

They're _almost_ as expensive as Games Workshop figures!

And play the game by myself or just within my own group.  Half the point
of the click-base games is the large community of players.

I probably wouldn't like playing with strangers anyway, so it's not that
much of a loss.  (And I think the movement systems of the first two
click-base games are totally whacked out.)

I've been tempted to buy the low-level "singles" in bulk online, remove
the click base and mount them on more traditional bases.  You can get a
very large number of miniatures for twenty bucks that way.
