Great link. That 20mm stuff looks sweet!

very nice stuff.
but I'll say this as a wargamer and modeler.  if youre going to go as large as 20mm just suck it up and go 1/72.  its not that much bigger and your options for vehicles, figures, buildings and terrain increase by an order of magnitude.
Jarhead - Yeah. You're probably right.

Gus - I use sweatpants with flannel shorts to soak up my crotch sweat.

Banzai Cat - There is no "partial credit" in grammar. Like anal sex. It's either in, or it's not.

Mirth - We learned long ago that they key isn't to outrun Star, it's to outrun Gus.

Martok - I don't know if it's possible to have an "anti-boner"...but I now have one.

Gus - Celery is vile and has no reason to exist. Like underwear on Star.

What's 20mm equivalent to? 1/144?

huh- less than a 20% difference to 1/72. Star could be on to something...

duh

not only are 1/72 easier to paint but the kits are cheaper because its a common model scale not a railroad scale.
