After a discussion on TMP about gaming with 1:72 minis [http://theminiaturespage.com/boards/msg.mv?id=190545], I decided that 40 x 40 mm basing for 3 figures is a good idea and promptly ordered several packets of 2mm MDF 40mm squares via eBay.co.uk. They were really cheap too at 1 GBP per pack of 16 plus 40p shipping to Poland. Hopefully next week I will be able to create several infantry bases since I already own various 1:72 minis.
I was also thinking about the localization of the 'conflict'. Not being terribly original I decided on two neighboring countries, Mongo and Zuganda, as well as several force names that may change in the future...
Territorial Earth Alliance Militia = T.E.A.M.
Mongo Enlightened Animists Tribe = M.E.A.T.
Nationalist Alliance Succession Army = N.A.S.A.
Marxist Anarchist Restoration Squadron = M.A.R.S.
National Independence Congress Escorts = N.I.C.E.
Zuganda Intervention Patrol = Z.I.P.
Now the hard part on deciding what miniatures to assign to each force...
Życzę powodzenia Piotruś :)

OdpowiedzUsuńGood names!
OdpowiedzUsuńWith regard to the scale of the minis: always reassuring to see a wargaming thinking by himself rather than slavishly obeying 'the rules'.
Can't wait to see the finished result!
OdpowiedzUsuńFun!
