Just downloaded these rules for tank-to-tank combat and in the introduction I read that you can use whatever model scale of your choice. What scale are you using with these rules? Could be played with 1/72 models or are they too big for the game table suggested ( 3 x 3 foot ?)

I use 15mm but the suggested table size can be increases to fit whatever you want to use. Lots of good choices out there.

I play Nuts (the parent set for Hell hath no fury) in 20mm and it works just fine.

I play Hell Hath No Fury in 3mm with Oddzial Osmy's stuff from Picoarmor. I use a slightly smaller then 2'x2' board and convert all distances to cm.
I wanted a "travel game" type setup for playing and this works very well for that.

We've always done THW stuff in 15mm but for a straight tank game, I'd be tempted to use 10mm.

THe tanks are quite cheap and they won't take up much space.

I play it a lot in 15mm and it works really fine! But either 20mm or 10mm will surely work as fine as well.

I use 28mm…but then I'm a NUTS! nut who has an absurdly large AFV collection.

3mm for me due to minis cost & table size. Pretty much any scale should work though.

Thank you.. I went for 1/144 … (10-12mm?)

On a 3' by 3' table I would go with no larger than 1/300th scale models and possibly even use 1/600th (3mm)

Just started it in 10mm on a 3 x 5 ft table. I'd like to get it on a 4x 8ft table though for more maneuvering.

Is it good fun? Is it simple? Is it worth trying out with 1/35 on a 12 x 6 table?

That would be my approach as well. Not suggesting anyone else needs to do things my way, but I like room for maneuver in my gaming. Gotta have at least 2-3,000m of space on the short end of the table for my tastes.

…but then I'm a NUTS! nut who has an absurdly large AFV collection.

Cool! Although at a different scale, I have a rather large AFV collection myself.

For example, I have ten companies of T-34s alone (if we include the T-34-85s). How many do you have?
