Because of the difference between Figure scale and Map scale, 3mm looks like it'd be really workable for official minis + oversized hexes, in the spirit of what Desert Scribe did a couple years ago. Taking Ogre full-3D, what your battlefield looks like comes down to what you decide to do with hexes vs inches, what you do relative to map space (I won't say 'map scale', because that's nearly 1:40,000...may as well use candy sprinkles for skyscrapers at that point) vs what you decide to do relative to the figures themselves, etc.
Steve’ go-to excuse for perceived scale difference is brilliant: we are actually watching a battle in a hologram tank, where things are abstracted out.
