If so, then 25mm is the Uncle you can't be left unsupervised with, who has an unhealthy obsession with the Prussians at Waterloo.

I've always thought 28mm is the bloody Frankenstein. 25mm or one inch, fine with the code boneyone and the imperials, 4,0xmm to the foot, 14mm to the metre, a nice figure if you like them big. Then 28mm comes in with 30mm figs and it looks like you are playing fantasy with gnolls - and they take twice as long to paint because of all the detail.

Creating a time machine just for a range of toy soldiers does seem a little OTT :)
Perhaps they're working off Peeler's calendar? I see they're also releasing "Foots" - presumably each model will have at least two (four if it's a horse)?

You are such a disparaging individual. If memory serves you were quite happy to play ACW with the little chaps here and I seem to recall you enjoyed World2Dave's FPW 6mm as well.

I'm thinking I shan't ask you over for a game that you won't turn up to anyway...again. :finger: :D :D
I feel very ashamed of myself.

Well, it was the dumbing down of the hobby that gave us 28mm.

Ha! In your face :finger: .
