Welcome, Sigmar. I also took the down-sizing route from 25/28 to the one true scale. Despite certain eccentricities and flights of fancy, the Forumites provide a sound knowledge base in every aspect of our hobby. Our hosts also produce an ever enlarging range of figures that takes days to explore! Enjoy!

Welcome to the forum. This is a good year to get into 10mm, as over the last 6 months there has been a goodly amount of new commercial 10mm terrain items available.

Agree entirely. I am playing a HOW scenario this afternoon. In 28mm it is 6'x6' - my 10mm table this afternoon is 3'x3'. this is because HOW (published by Osprey) has play sheets for different scales. Personally I find the 10mm version on 20mm square bases too small, and instead use 25mm square bases, four base standard units and the 15mm play sheet. Even this is 50% smaller in scale than the 28mm version.



An earlier scenario game on 3'x2'
Love the battalion gun bases as part of these units.

Hi,

Welcome to the forum. The problem I find with 10mm is that you just do bigger battles.  Well that's my excuse :)
