We asked you… TMP link Tomorrow's War – the sci-fi rules from Osprey Publishing/Ambush Alley Games – says that "…scenarios are generally played on 4' x 4' tables…" What table size do you most often use for your Tomorrow's War games? The #1 answer was 4x6! 4x4 was the #2 answer, but only about a third as many.

I generally play my smaller skirmish level games on a 4x4 and the larger army games on a 6x4 or 8x4. With the small force sizes used in TW, 4x4 is ample (and that's even with 28mm not the 15mm that is "default". With "out of contact" moves in addition to their normal movements, the troops can get around it relatively easily.
