Table Size

[RobF]

Hi Guys

I am all new to BE and have just bought WaW and have ordered some 72nd scale figures.

I am really short of space for a table - what is the smallest size table games can sensibly be played on and what points amount do you suggest for small tables ?

we often play on a 4x4 or 3x4 when stuck for space, it just means you need to alter your deployment zones and possably game size...

games are often designed to play on a 6x4 or 6x8 table but ive found a 3x6 / 3x4 is a good compramise of you bring the points down.

With enough small buildings, 2ftx3ft with 700 pts per side is incredibly fun!

Thanks for those replies

How many points would you choose for a 3x4 board do you think ?

a 2 x 3 foot board packed with buildings sounds like a great project for when I get my terrain skills improved

My default setup with 28mm minis is 4ft x 6ft using inches.
1500 to 2000 points

For 3x4 I would limit the game o 1000 points.
However if you are really tight on space try to use cm instead of inches.
And suddenly the table 4x6 table is only 50 cm x 75 cm ...
The ranges with everything bigger then 15mm minis will look strange but it is certainly playable...

Hi Agis

Thanks for the suggestions.

PS - I just bought the British VC - very nice - can't wait to see what's next.
