You should have gotten a patent ;)<br /><br />I'm not as concerned with the length/depth issues of 2' x 2' as I'm always using my own rules anyway, but should it become an issue, I think I'll just go 3' x 2' and then I can do an easy 'halving' of everything.<br /><br />Regarding seeing the 3mm from a few feet away, that's the beauty of it, I'm not a few feet away. I'm sitting on the couch, coffee table pulled back to my knees, my mug practically pressed up against the battlespace ;) So, believe it or not, I can actually make out the different vehicles. To tell the truth, this is also aided by the fact that there are pretty much three troop types: tanks, APCs, and infantry (of course I've got a bit of AA/SAM/Recon/etc..., spread in, but not a lot).<br /><br />And thank you Sir on the congrats. Yes, this is baby number three. We may be old, but no whining! Though I'm already lamenting my future lack of sleep...<br /><br />V/R,<br />JackJust Jackhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03552962741823929433noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1328749298871119665.post-65007489996175345002014-02-28T04:30:23.602-08:002014-02-28T04:30:23.602-08:00Jack,
I think 2'x2' and children is becom...Jack,<br /><br />I think 2'x2' and children is becoming a worldwide phenomenon! Your 3mm are painted better than my 6mm (that I did not paint but I thought some of it is quite good). They came out extremely well. For the amount of troops you are using 2'x2' should be fine. I did find (and I think I mentioned it some blog posts), that 2' seemed a little too deep and 2' was not quite wide enough. At least for scenario replays (mostly designed for 6'x4') and converting inches to cm. Over the Christmas break I flocked a 30"x20" board (what you get reducing a 6'x4' by 2.5:1). 30" is how wide my map drawers are as well. I have not got a game in yet but soon.<br /><br />I have trouble seeing 6mm at night, although someone on another forum pointed out getting a lamp with a daylight bulb which I have now got but not tested with my 6mm. How do you even see what type a 3mm tank is from a few feet away!<br /><br />And congratulations on another baby. This is number 3? With only two, I can no longer whinge about children to you (not that I ever did). John-Grey Panda I think has 3 so you can whinge to him!Shaun Travershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05691522858410783769noreply@blogger.com
