Scale

Troop scale - 1 figure = 100 men seems to work OK, but it doesn’t really matter as long as both sides are of historical proportions.

Ground scale - probably about 1 inch = 12.5 yards, but it doesn't really matter.

Time scale - not applicable.

Basing

As this is primarily an element based system then ideally all figures should be on stands of a similar size. An element should contain 2, 3 or 4 figures depending on whether it represents troops in open, loose or close order. The maximum size of a single unit is 16 elements, although ad hoc formations brigaded together by a general may be of 25 elements.
