"Do You Have Multiple Versions of the Same Unit?" Topic

While cataloging my various armies I noted something

I have multiple versions of some units

For most, they are in different scales – for example, I have the Iron Brigade in 54mm and 15mm – and I have the 57th Infantrie de Ligne in 28mm and 6mm

However, I also have one unit duplicated in the same scale – a 28mm SYW dragoon unit that I painted up – then received the same unit from a friend as a gift just as I finished my painting (a great gift – also a better paint job than my unit!)

So -

1) Nope – singleton units only for me!
2) Yes – in different scales
3) Yes – in the same scale (I like it that much)
4) Don't really have units
5) Couldn't really say
6) Need more boobies (the ultimate default)

Nope

7) Happy post-Zardoz Day…

And whilst it does need more boobies, I do have some units that have been duplicated.

No

14.7) I don't game the same period in multiple scales. I know I lose track of things, but when you only game in one scale, that makes it easy.

Nope

Does 21 Panzer in North Africa and in Normandy count? Both in 15mm.
I have loads of WW2 minis in 15mm and in 28mm, but the 28mm models aren't painted up as any specific unit.

no

I game in 6mm. It would be more accurate to say that I have miniatures who can represent multiple units, rather than the reverse.

2 – sorta. I have figs in 6mm and 15mm, but no "unit" in either, just bunches of figs not labelled as any particular unit.

Yes, both same scale and different scale.

Nope, not yet.

3) Same scale. For example I have 15mm Panzer III Ausf G in Dunkelgrau, Dunkelgrau and hastily applied white camo for winter, and also in Afrika Korps scheme. I also have several buildings in both summer and winter varieties.

3 – a few of them.

I have multiple scales, but not same units.

Only my 25mm Varangian Guard.

Yes, it's neccessary for units that operate either mounted or dismounted in several rules.

1, although I've had 2 before.

Yes in different periods!!

Somewhere along the way I asked this question in the Nap Board, It's a rare thing, someone did have French Carabineers in the same scale if I remember correctly.

Done the entire Guards Armoured Div in 6mm, then 10mm, then 12mm, then 20mm (Not the entire Div), and now I'm contemplating it in 15mm (again prob not the entire formation!)

I'd say I suffer from OCD, but I hate using that term as it should be CDO, in alphabetical order….

Somebody hit Sparker with a stick for me…

OUCH!!!
