That's cool. As others have mentioned, I find the miniatures interesting
but
the game mechanics discussion should be off list.

The HG scale is smaller than N scale. 10mm and N scale are almost bang
on
accurate.

There are some really awesome N scale buildings. I was in a model
railroad
store and saw what they had in the way of buildings (North American,
early
20th century). For historicals, there is a lot of stuff. Not sure what
you
could adapt for sci-fi, other than trees and terrain.
