Keep seeing the figs here and there. Anyone playing it a lot?
Does it scale up well? 50-100 figs per side?

Never seen anyone playing/buying it. The figs look fantastic.

I saw a game at a con. Fantastic figures, but the table was covered in unit cards, chits and markers. No idea if it is supposed to play that way but visually the game was very underwhelming.

I like the look of it, too, but I have never, ever seen a game of it being played anywhere. Couple that with seeing many online stores that carry it selling it off at large discounts and I have to assume it's not all that popular. I have no use for yet another unplayed game system…

I think these 28mm figs never really caught on because, at least around here, people like the small scale ships, tanks, etc. I don;t think 28mm appeals to people painting/collecting in that scale.

The figures are excellent, if a little big.

Great detail.

Never seen it played.

I've seen it more bought for vehicles for other games; never the figs.

I thought they were more 32s?

Strictly speaking they are 32s,but the mechanical suits and vehicles are suitable for 28mm. Lovely sculpts but I just couldn't make them fit with even my more robust 28mm's.

It's been said many times before, 32mm may not have been the best sales pitch. Having said that it hasn't seemed to stop other companies going down the 32mm route.

I thought the Tankette would scale well as a full size tank in 15mm

DLIinVSF12 Jan 2016 11:46 p.m. PST

Now there is a thought for 15mm games

More like 1/48 scale, ~36mm. Which isn't bad, you can grab O scale railroad pieces for terrain. But they ain't 28mm.
