I am waiting on my copy of the game to arrive and I am thinking about using my 1:72nd models for the game once we have a few 1:600 games…space is not an issue.
How big is the recommended table size for 1:600 so I can work out how much area I need for a 1:72 version!

Wow, that is really going large.

I think I'd stop at 1/144th scale, myself, but I guess there's no reason you can't compress the movement rates for the larger aircraft a bit.

Have the rules, but haven't played them yet, so not really sure what table size you'll need.

I think 6 x 4 feet is the "default" table size, but you can get away with smaller or larger. Bases are 30mm square, so I guess that's the main thing to relate table size to – not the aircraft scale as such, but how big your bases will be.

There is a new set of rules called "Thud Ridge" coming out? Didn't know that.

Not new set but Wings at wars set available from tumbling dice.

Lay out hexes on the floor of a basketball court?

No need no hexes so just us the court as is.
