Its business, not hobby, JB. Why should anyone sell 6mm if the dominant players in the market push 20mm and 28mm figures with expensive marketing targeting ...
... I'm thinking of Wexford Hill Hobbies, but Tin Soldier sort of fits, too, now that you mention. It was a good little shop, then closed and the manager...
... One trend I have noticed - especially as it affects me - is that as there are so many systems and scales readily available, the old clubs have fragmented. ...
Yes, I think its sad. However as I see it what wargaming offers is variety derived in history. There is always something to learn. Now there is a decline in...
I guess it depends on whether you consider more people playing wargames to be a bad thing or not. I suspect the actual percentage of the population playing...
WOW!! When I first wrote in querying if the original survey post should be allowed on the site, I never thought it would generate such an indepth coverage of...
Tom: But Wexford Hill's at least still in business, right? I don't buy much there, but they have neat stuff to look at. I'd miss them. I'm a collector,...

It depends what you like. Some rules are designed primaily as games with relatively little emphasis on historical accuracy, which, to be fair, puts me off a...
FOW can be done in 6mm / 1/285 scales ya know ************************************** See what's new at http://www.aol.com [Non-text portions of this message...
... So do you mean that FoW is flexible, or 6mm is turning toy-like? :) Seriously though, I considered simply using 1cm = 1in and playing with 6mm figures....
... Oh, I'm sympathetic to his plight. He just presented it in a manner that made it unlikely anybody would take an interest in the rules he prefers. Instead...
Some friends and I play FOW in 6mm but use all the regular distances and same size boards as the 15mm. This is just a preference, we like the look better. ... ...
It was more the cost of the rules themselves that I was concerned about, bearing in mind the fact that you seem to need a copy of the rules themselves plus at...
... They're not cheap ($45 core rulebook plus $25 per front book) but that's not as bad as others. I've been astounded by what some rule sets go far, ...

It's not hard to make a reasonable facsimile at 6mm. There are allot of pictures available. The bridge is of a type known as a swing bridge. Not having been to...
Playing FoW with 1/285 figures requires some tinkering with weapon ranges and the basing has to be much adjusted to prevent the close-order look of the 20mm...
... Actually, no. As was noted by huhncc earlier in this thread, you can keep the existing measurements and simply play with 6mm figures. A lot of people find...
If anyone is interested, I've been trying to blog and have quite a few pics of my 6mm minis up, much of it is modern Microarmour, but I have started uploading...

Some good points there Bob. Have you considered Battlefront WW2 at all? They are cheaper than Battlefront WW2, probably almost as simple to play and I find...
