I use 7' x 15' table at my house.

There are times when it is tough in the middle, particularly for the shorter guys. I am about average, 5' 10" and it usually works okay for me.

When necessary, we kneel on a bar stool or let someone else move the figures who is taller. I like the extra depth on the table. We have played games with over 4500 15mm Naps on my table. But the size is also nice for only a couple hundred 28mm Sioux Wars figures where you need lots of room to move.

POLL DESCRIPTION

Twin Cities Gamer Supporting Member of TMP wonders...

I was curious: What does everyone think is the max size as far as width goes for a dedicated table. I've kept most of my tables at 5' wide, but I'm thinking of popping them out to 6' from now on... I think it will look better at 6' wide, but I could theoretically do it as a 5'.

For the purposes of this poll, width is the shortest table side. For example, if a table was 4 x 6, it would have a width of 4 (and a length of 6).
