15mm RTE

what? Yes I did stick my head above the parapet and say 15mm

Barry I'm working my way through the rules hopefully with a game in mind for Monday - I'd intended to convert all movement and firing ranges etc from inches to cms. However thereare some areas where you actually mention mms - like page 59- "a gap of 50mm or greater is required between bodies of troops in order for units to fire through at a target beyond" and page 20 with respect to artillery basing - "Behind this space a further 200mm minimum space should be filled with limber caissons or similar"

I think I'll just halve those measurements unless anyone has a better suggestion

Valleyboy,

sorry for the British measurement schizophrenia

... governed in metric brought up and educated in imperial..

Halving is good enough in this cause. . common sense transcends measurement scales

Same here
I'm Welsh, moved to NZ 10 years ago
I'll halve the dead ground or artillery battery footprint

We play R2E in 15mm and just converted the measurements straight to cm's this seems to work fine for us.
