Q. Marvellous Miniature?
A. I prefer theatre of the mind, but do use tokens and standees quite often at cons.
I don't really use miniatures in roleplaying games very often, I've always been very much a theatre of the mind person. That said, I'm happy using tokens on a grid on a VTT, probably as they're far less hassle to paint, for more skirmish-like games such as D&D.
However, sometimes I will use maps and tokens to make it clear who is where. When running at LongCon, I had printed maps and used some dry-wipe tokens (All Rolled Up have some really useful ones) and some meeples to do this.

I also found this set on Amazon a few years ago, and it's really useful when you really need a set of markers quickly.

| Dragonbane Monster Standee set |
I do like the way that Dragonbane has included standees for gaming in both the starter set and as a companion product to the Bestiary book. It does make the option to play with miniatures really easy to do.
The realist in me knows that most of my gaming is online, so purchasing miniatures is a rabbit-hole I don't need to go down.
