Wouldnt this depend on the number of hooks?

Depends how many chains you have.

Now I'm thinking:

"Sticks and stones
May break my bones
but rods and chains
excite me!"

Shame on you ... err me  ;D ;D :-[

Inches or centimeters?

What I use and what I claim may be two different systems...
I have neither the time nor the crayons to explain why you are wrong.

Ah, the elastic tape-measure - a time-honoured wargames feature.  :D

Of course you could always go down the SAGA route of making or buying special sticks of different lengths.

A good idea and I like SAGA but find it odd that a set of rules writen in french uses the anacronistic inch as it's unit of measurement, presumably to make sure they are acceptable to the transatlantic market.
