“Send these orders…”
There were a few demonstration games on at Attack 2011 at Devizes and one of them was a very impressive 54mm scale Napoleonic game.
warhammer, wh40k, flames of war, bolt action, aeronautica imperialis, star wars, models, news, views and stuff
A 20mm demonstration game of the Normandy Landings.
Some very nice Hobart’s Funnies conversions in play, as well as a load of landing craft.
Very little sign of the Germans though…
More photographs of World War Two wargames.
Sherman tanks disembark from landing craft on a defended beach.
This was taken at a demonstration games and is 20mm scale.
At the time this was taken in the 1990s 20mm and 6mm were the dominant scales for this period of wargaming. Since then 15mm has become almost the defacto standard with Flames of War dominating the era and displacing both 20mm and I would also say 6mm gaming in this period. One area that has seen growth has been in 28mm WWII with many plastic and metal miniatures available.
So what scale do you play and why?
