Scale

Ground and Time Scales	"It has been the author's experience that, unless the game is staged at 1:1, the time scale means only one thing: the number of turns in a battle; and the ground scale means only one thing: the distance a man can move relative to the distance a man can shoot. Therefore no scale is given except in practical application: move distance, missile ranges, and turns in a game."
Figure Scale	1 figure represents 100 combatants
Miniature Scales	Designed for 25mm scale figures. (Official Tekumel miniatures are available from Tita's House of Games.)

Basing

Individual. 15mm x 20mm bases for humans; other species vary.
