Change of scale

Post by Chad » Wed Oct 08, 2014 12:42 pm

I currently have figures based for another set of rules which by changing the figure ratio to 40:1 would be usable with R2E.

While this would need adjustment of the ground scale, I am not certain if I would need to change the Combat Group. With a combat group of 4 figures being equal to 80 men, would it be necessary for the Combat Group to be 2 models to fit the rule mechanics?

Advice please

Hi Chad,
No need for any changes Combat groups are units of 4 Figures so no need to scale them down. How many men they represent are no problem at all as the rules give you free hand with that.

Hope that helps?
If you have any other question just shoot and someone will answer!

Cheers,
Günter
