army building
Troop strength expansion
Army building is the activity of collecting and assembling miniature figures for tabletop wargames like Warhammer.
Players purchase, assemble, and paint models to create forces for gameplay, often spending months or years expanding their collections: I've been army building for my Space Marines since January.
The term emphasizes the gradual, strategic process of acquiring units that work well together tactically.
