Scale: It is intended for soldiers as small as 15mm, and as tall as 30mm. If you use larger figures and / or a larger space, double the moves. Likewise, if your space is very small, then measure in centimeters rather than inches.
– Metalsmashing introduction
Basing: For 25mm to 30mm figures, most players tray their men at one-inch intervals so that each controls a 1” by 1” area. Cavalry controls 1” by 1½”

For 15mm to 20mm, some prefer to have a ½ inch interval. Cavalry gets ½” by 1 inch. Of course, some use ¾” and 1”. Some who use 20mm might stick to 1” and 1½” for cavalry.
