         2 . The miniature movement system according to  claim 1 , wherein the center cavity defined by the plurality of sides is one of (1) a hole that extends through a respective modular platform from a first side thereof to a second side thereon and (2) a hole that extends a predetermined depth from the first side thereof. 
     
     
         3 . The miniature movement system according to  claim 1 , wherein the plurality of sides defines a hexagonal configuration. 
     
     
         4 . The miniature movement system according to  claim 1 ,
 wherein each side of the plurality of sides includes an attachment piece and a receiving piece, and   wherein the attachment piece of a first side of the first modular platform is configured to be received within the receiving piece of a first side of the at least the second modular platform, and the receiving piece of the first side of the first modular platform is configured to receive the attachment piece of the first side of the at least the second modular platform.   
     
     
         5 . The miniature movement system according to  claim 1 , wherein each magnet-reactive metal plate is a circular magnet-reactive metal plate. 
     
     
         6 . The miniature movement system according to  claim 1 , wherein each magnet-reactive metal plate is a magnet configured to magnetically couple to a base of a figurine. 
     
     
         7 . The miniature movement system according to  claim 6 , wherein a first side of each magnet-reactive metal plate has a first magnetic pole that is magnetically coupleable to the base of the figurine having a second magnetic pole opposite the first magnetic pole. 
     
     
         8 . The miniature movement system according to  claim 1 , wherein each magnet-reactive metal plate is configured to magnetically couple to a magnet affixed to a base of a figurine. 
     
     
         9 . The miniature movement system according to  claim 1 , further comprising:
 at least one connecting piece configured to connect between two modular platforms.   
     
     
         10 . The miniature movement system according to  claim 8 , wherein the at least one connecting piece includes four sides, wherein a first side includes a first attachment piece and a first receiving piece and a second side, opposite the first side, includes a second attachment piece and a second receiving piece. 
     
     
         11 . The miniature movement system according to  claim 1 , further comprising:
 at least one connecting piece configured to connect to a modular platform, wherein the at least one connecting piece includes a plurality of sides, said plurality of sides defining a central cavity therein configured to house dice.   
     
     
         12 . The miniature movement system according to  claim 9 , wherein at least one side of the plurality of sides includes a receiving piece and an attachment piece. 
     
     
         13 . A modular gaming component comprising:
 a gaming figure including a magnetic base;   a modular platform including a plurality of sides defining a center cavity; and   a magnet-reactive metal plate configured to be received in the center cavity of the modular platform and configured to magnetic couple to the magnetic base of the gaming figure.   
     
     
         14 . The modular gaming component according to  claim 13 , wherein the magnetic base is adjustable. 
     
     
         15 . The modular gaming component according to  claim 13 , wherein the magnetic base includes a single magnet. 
     
     
         16 . The modular gaming component according to  claim 15 , wherein the single magnet is disposed in a center portion of the magnetic base. 
     
     
         17 . The modular gaming component according to  claim 13 , wherein the magnetic base includes a plurality of magnets.
