Guess I was wrong about 15mm being a "growth market." Still, two packs
of
figs are hardly enough to get things going. I certainly wouldn't dive
into
15mm SF right now if I only had 2 packs to choose from, and them in
danger
of being orphaned.
Of course 28mm looks better at a con than 15mm. This is, of course, the
age
of style over substance. 15mm is a more suitable wargaming scale,
particularly when you have more than 20 figures per side.
