Like most old school wargamers , I tried something in almost every scale available , finally settled on 20mm - 1/72. A lot of newer players seem to join the scene for specific games like 40k or Bolt action
Thanks for the video. After returning to the hobby last year after a twenty year break I found all the different scales very confusing as which would be best. Have ended up with bits of each scale and one thing I only recently started to think about was scenery. If you are into too many scales you have to build make and store scenery for each scale as well!
1/72 Scale is 25 mm figure scale, not 20 mm. 20 mm figure scale is 1/80 Scale (technically 1 : 80.5 but nobody worries about that). 1/56 Scale is more like 32 mm figure scale, 1/60 Scale is 28 mm figure scale (actually it is 30 mm, technically, but because 'heroic' it is used for nominally 28 mm miniatures currently) and what the various "25 mm" ranges have crept up to.
