FoW does this for one reason only - they want to sell lots of 
artillery models as well as all the tanks and infantry!  ;-)

I know the "logarithmic groundscale" argument used in FoW sits

ambivalent about it myself.

The problem is that I also make a number of cool artillery-type minis 
that I also want people to buy....  ;-)
