If you had to start a brand-new historical period today, which scale would you choose? |

No change. Still 25/28mm. |
| Titchmonster | 21 Mar 2026 11:52 a.m. PST |
25/28mm no matter the period |
| Frederick | 21 Mar 2026 11:58 a.m. PST |
Would stick with 28mm for SYW For WWII would switch from 6mm to 10mm For ACW would switch from 15mm to 10mm For Napoleonics wou;ld stick with 6mm For Ancients/Medieval stick to 28mm |

It depends on the period and what size units. Modern (1918+) skirmish- 28mm or larger- even 1/35. Renaissance probably 15mm/18mm. As for the rest- probably which available figures caught my eye. |

Mass battle 2mm or 6mm. Skirmish/RPG 28mm. But whoever is compelling me to start a new period has to show me the storage space first. |

No change. I like 25/28mm. |

25/28mm, all my buildings and terrain are in that scale. |

Horse and musket, either 3mm or 1/72 WWII, either 3mm (with each stand of multiple AFVs representing a company) or 15mm. |

10-12mm if you"re talking multi-figure stands in a unit.
28+mm if individually mounted figures and less than 40 or so figures being controlled by one person. |
