Since ACW uniforms are not typically that pretty I really do think that 10mm looks best on the table. With OGs strips you can really get a mass effect there. |

I don't own any ACW, but if I got into it, I'ld prefer 10mm. Ditto what Pictor's Studio said. |

10mm for me. Not necessarily preferred but it is what I have! The uniforms may not be that pretty but you can make them look pretty darned interesting. They are an irregular looking army after all! |

6mm – Many reasons -good selection of figures and terrain -realistic ranges and ground scale -ability to fight large battles |

Other – 20mm aka 1/72nd aka Airfix plastics |

25/28mm gives a player the option of sprcifying family members on the table. |

Other – 1/72 plastics. There is a huge variety available, including 6 horse gun teams, for instance. Local/regional availability also is an important factor. |

I have 6mm, 15mm, 28mm and 54mm – of them all, I game most often in 15mm but that is probably because I have the most figs in that scale (for the time being) – I am adding more 6mm, though If I was starting it all over I would probably go 10mm rather than 6mm and 15mm, but that bus left the station 30 years ago |

It has to be 15mm for me. |

It appears, and I agree, that 20mm – 1/72 is missing form the options. Sold off my Airfix 1/72 last year and transferred into RSM/Musket metal. Best size for detail and mass battles. I thought long and hard before the replacement. The 15mm or smaller would have had the mass and the 25mm would have had the detail, but 20mm had both. |

20mm for me. All of my figures are metal; Musket, RSM, Kennington, Newline Design, SHQ, Qualitycast and Woodensfield, plus "small" 25mm from Frontier, Confederals and a smattering of Dixon and even Sash and Sabre. Such a huge variety available in 20mm/small 25mm. |
