Description

Purpose:
This group supports 6mm miniatures gamers of all genres. The 6mm scale is also known as 5mm, 1/285 and 1/300.

Featured Photo:
One of several photos of a massive Great War Spearhead refight of Cambrai, refought with 6mm figures. This particular photo shows a barrage as it moves beyond the town of Flesquieres. The game uses Irregular Miniatures infantry and H&R tanks and a custom made table.

Photo Album Back-up:
http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/6mm_Minis_Photos/

Expected Behavior:
Good nettiquette, polite manners and clean language are expected.

Moderation:
This group has a large number of moderators from nearly every time zone around the world. We moderate new members for their first few posts. This step was taken to discourage SPAMers rather than out of a lack of trust for miniature enthusiasts.

Allowed Posts:
All posts that have a strong relation to 6mm miniatures and 6mm gaming will be allowed at the moderators' discretion. You are welcome to write posts about trades, battle reports, miniature questions, mini assembly, mini painting, game background chat, or just about anything else related to 6mm miniature gaming.

Unwelcome Posters:
SPAMers, political activists, impolite people, and anyone else being unpleasant will be banned immediately with no warning at the moderators' discretion.
