I see that there is a 15mm and 25mm ADLG theme tourney on Saturday – I assume that use the 60mm frontage for 25mm not 80mm (28mm). Anyone know? |

That's what the rules suggest on page 7. However, it can be difficult to tell the difference sometimes between makers that claim the two sizes. |

Yes, 60mm. AFAIK all "25-28mm" ADLG events ever held anywhere in the world have all used the 60mm convention, and Cold Wars is no different. |

Thanks madaxeman – I expected as much I just wanted to check. 80mm is way too big to be practical anyways |

So the official rules declaration of 8cm for 4 28mm figures (hvy inf) is not generally followed? |

It is a 25mm tourney so they are following 25mm conventions. I found 80mm was too big (storage and table required) although in 60mm I have to double base the heavy infantry and I can only fit 6 rather than 8 on the base. 40mm deep for cavalry involves some clipping too. |
