RE: Re-scaling question (Stargrunt)

Not 'zacly... the most common definition of 25mm scale iws the average
hieght of a man or around 5'8" or so. The upshot is _TRUE_ 25mm ends up
being around 1/68 or 1/69. But 1/72 is definately the most common model
size available nearest 25mm. It works well for the smaller castings
(e.g. Starguard ! figs &c.) but looks bogus next to the Giganto Workshop
stuff.
