It makes them sounds like they are almost talking over eachother, yet not. This is natural speech (also talking over). So many skits and most Computer games, cannot do this.

He started saving them for use as "minis", and he'd bring home a few dozen a day; soon it was all they used. Green ones for orcs, brown ones for goblins, big ones for dragons, all sorts of stuff.

      @@Mariner797 Theater of the mind is fine if you're just doing a little scuffle or a one-on-one duel.
      It gets really convoluted and difficult to follow the more combatants you add, and the more complexity to the terrain/enemies/etc. that you add.
      Even just drawing a map on a single sheet of paper (or a napkin) is better than doing complex combat in TotM.

    Congrats on the baby! Awesome video. We use 1x1 LEGO bricks in those situations in which theater of the mind doesn't cut it. In my view, the less realistic the better, so it doesn't get in the way of the cool stuff we can make up in our brains.
