Which scale of minis do you prefer for your zombie gaming? |

25/28mm of course. Why is this a debate ? |

15mm more figures for your money, and more room due to scale. Then of course 1500mm would be cool too! |

1/72. Tons of zeds for almost nothing. You can raid the Zombies! games and buy packs of HO scale civilians from Asia to zombify for next to nothing. Survivors can be found in several of the Caesar packs. SAS in gasmasks can be painted as hazmat troops. Hotwheels for vehicles. Just about every modern military nuance is available…often at a fraction of the price of "wargaming" materials. There's HO scale buildings for scenery too. |

20 mm for me, get to re-purpose terrain and vehicles, have a horde of 200 multi based 'railway' figures, various police/security figures,Caesar (SAS) Hazmat teams and some Elhiem survivors and zombies for 'encounters'……..awaiting my box of Caesar zombies…… auction |

Holy cow! I didn't know Caesar came out with zombies! |

I love 28mm because the figs and terrain are easy to work with my "old" eyes. If you want the most bang for your $$ then 15mm is the way to go---easy to get vehicles and buildings for setting up your table |

15mm figures and HO train buildings and matchbox cars and trucks. That is all you need to have a fun game. |

28mm for me. While I've got a bunch of basic non-descript zeds, I've also got many celebrity & stand-out zombie minis. My zombie scenarios include conflict between the players & local NPCs (the Evil Residents). I like to use Reaper's Chronoscope figures for the players' minis & I converted copies to zombified versions (a few have these ready cast) to put on the table if a player character takes a "Dead Walk". There are great 15mm Zombipocalyse minis but for me that scale is too small for skirmish level games. At one of the two Historicons that I attended years ago, long before the current zombie craze, a "Night of the Living Dead" game was presented in the children's room using a large scale dollhouse with Barbies & G.I. Joes for the figures; to me that was brilliant. |

I only do do zombies in 28mm. |

I do 28mm due to the figures but the smaller scales are easier to find buildings and vehicles for. |

15mm, HO buildings, Matchbox and Hot Wheels vehicles. None a perfect match for the other, but close enough for gaming. |
