I still do 20mm WW2 for this same reason but nearly all of my friends
are
collecting 15mm now...peer presure to get my 20mm buildings and stuff
out of
the game room might make me crack at some point. I have plenty of 25mm
GZG
stuff but it is the only real 25 you can get anymore, most of my 20mm
buildings work with it and a few Low-fi addons to the table it looks
great. However...I have 15mm all my other historical ranges so I will be
moving to 15mm SG stuff early next year with a opening order at X-mas.
The
buildings and terain will not be a problem and I can store the 20mm
stuff in
boxes and pull it out when I am to old to paint 15's anymore and need to
right size my scale to my eyes.

If GZG was making 25mm stuff I would be very intrested in buying.
