I use 28mm, but if I had to do FPW again, I would use 15mm so I could get more than a couple of divisions per side.

I personally don't "do" FPW.
But a good friend does it in 25/28mm. Good times are had by all. 👍

As usual, I don't collect them, I don't paint them, I don't own them. So, casualties are irrelevant to me. 😄

I do it in 6mm and have also done it previously in 15mm. My main scale is 1/72 now so I chose OTHER.

Thanks.

I have done 15mm and 6mm, but I have none at present so only "not my genre" would do.

IMO 15mm is the best scale for the FPW. The battles are way too big for 28mm. The uniforms are part of the reason I like this period and 6mm just doesn't do them justice. Old Glory has IMO the best range of 15mm FPW figures.
