These photos were of the first game we saw upon arrival at the show - right after breakfast, that is. I was taken back by the models and their position on the field. Maybe because many gamers are getting on in years, but the figure scales are rising. This was a 28mm game as many of the newer games are. My son has a large collection of 28mm figures covering cowboys, Northwest Frontier, and Sudan and they are beautiful to behold. I also have a growing collection in 28s, but most of my collection is 20s, some 25s, fives, and even 2mm. My eyesight is not as good as it used to be, so I find painting fives and twos difficult.
The hobby has come a long way from the days when we used to use tape roads and felt terrain. I always liked 1/72 plastic figures, a holdover from my Airfix days, I guess.
