6mm
I have started buying some 28mm AWI figs for use withthe rules but recently spotted the baccus 6mm range, does anyone use the rules with 6mm figs? if so how do you base your miniutures

Don't take any notice of those that don't believe in gods true scale. It depends on how you want to play your games. You do not mention if the idea is to play on a small table or have more troops per base. In my G at G games I use standed basing with 2 ranks of 4 baccus, so 8 men per base and count inches as cm i.e 6" = 6cm and that works ok for me on smaller tables 72cm x 48cm. Laager

"The Regulars are coming!.....Ah, no. Sorry everyone, it's just some fluff." "The Redcoats are coming!" I will have none of that historically accurate piffle.

I reckon the AWI is such a good war to game because the relatively small actions lend themselves to either armies with small numbers of troops (which is good for 28s and bigger) or armies that come closer to replacating the actual numbers involved (which is good for below 28s). Plus there's not much cavalry to paint no matter what way you approach it. I'm trying to go with a 1;10 scale with my own collection in 10mm, I'd imagine that works in 6mm even more easily. Giles has sometimes talked about doing Guildford Courthouse or Bunker Hill in 1:1, which would be some sight!

Indeedy. Which 10mm range are you useing?

clibinarium- 05-23-2009

Pendraken (I sculpted them :wink: )

:lol: Nice one Clib! Look forward to seeing pics of them. I use OG 10mm for my naps, recently picked up two ECW Pendraken army packs, and am on with painting them. AWI eh...hmmm...another nice colourful period...hmmm :D
