- Scale
Figure scale is not very important. The number
of figures per unit is completely up to the player.
We tend to like 25 mm figures massed on large
stands. The rules recommend size conventions
based on our preferences but the game
mechanics work as long as unit frontage and
depth remain proportional to those given in the
rules.
– Basic Fury introduction
- A typical 100-point army represents a force
of 10-30,000 men.
- Each full turn (both players have completed
an initiative) represents 5-15 minutes of
actual time.
The game has been developed with 25mm
figures and a ground scale of 60mm equals 50 paces. This allows units to consist of multiple DBX type stands. However, any
scale can be used as long as the unit basing stays proportional.
