Gabba gabba we accept you, one of us now … 6mm is the one true scale. You know it makes sense. :-) |

I'm slowly shifting back to micro/6mm from 28mm – I am finding that the larger minis just take too long for me to paint well, plus I like the mass effect of 6mm units. |

The mass effect of several thousand 6mm troops makes for a grand spectacle. :-) |

Yes, as I said when the 3800 Napoleonics are done it will be quite a spectale. Thats 171 Battalions, 25 Cavalry Regiments and 46 batteries |

It's funny. I have recently jumped into 54mm. However, i still love my 6mm stuff. Strange isn't it. :-D Thanks, John |

I did infact do some 54mm western as seen in my blog. but thats for just painting not gaming |

"Yes, as I said when the 3800 Napoleonics are done it will be quite a spectale. Thats 171 Battalions, 25 Cavalry Regiments and 46 batteries" That's not a spectacle, that's a START :-) |

Yes, 6mm is the one dependable scale you can always rely on when other let you down. Been doing 6mm Naps and WW2 since the 1970s. I don't do 6mm Naps with individually based figures any more though! |

To be honest, I actually scoffed at 6mm when it was first recommended to me.
I thought that the figures looked way too tiny to be recognizable as anything resembling miniatures. I thought that they wouldn't be any better than simply using cardboard markers or something. Then I was introduced to excellent makers such as Baccus, and to illuminating blogs such as folk.uio.no/arnsteio/DBXin6mm Now, I'm a convert. Although I play Warhammer 40K in 28mm, and FoW in 15mm, I've started collecting an Ancients army in 6mm. |

Baccus have the advantage of being 8mm. Nice figures, but not 6mm |
| ebsc82 | 11 Oct 2009 12:16 p.m. PST |
eh wrong about that Baccus are about 8mm they are 6mm, you will find that H&R are about 5mm, Adler about 7.mm. In fact if memory serves Peter has a picture of comparisons on his baccus web site. |
