Re: 54mm miniatures?
What were the miniatures Steve and Phil were using to demo TFT awhile back?

Re: 54mm miniatures?
And, in one picture, some 3D printed Octopi warriors, which I'm hoping Fat Dragon games puts up for sale on DriveThruRPG soon, since they were unlocked as part of the recent kickstarter.

Re: 54mm miniatures?
The "scale" (ground scale) is 1:32
Or 1 "unit" on the paper is equal to 32 "units" in the real world Or 1 inch on paper is 32 inches in the real world 1:32 scale figures would match figure scale to ground scale Lego minifigs are "traditionaly" considered to be 1:48 with slight deviations allowed for the minifig proportions 54mm figures are usually considered closer to 1:35 (being typically 1:33.9 when measured) Last edited by Terquem; 04-09-2019 at 04:14 PM. |

Re: 54mm miniatures?
I really love the look of 54mm, but they are hard to find (a lot of my accumulation came out of Eastern Europe) and yes, they're big.
An advantage of the ones Phil found for the TFT demos is that the transparent base is easy to write (for iinstance) an ID letter on. |

Modern military may not fit in your TFT world (though they make me want to play Subterranean Operational Theater), but there are sets with knights, vikings, Romans & barbarians, gladiators, Greeks & Trojans, etc., that can be made to serve. At the usual price point, one can afford to buy a bunch and then pick and choose. Fantasy figures are (as you say) harder to find or a bit more expensive, but they are coming around -- how about 100 skeleton warriors for $20? |

Re: 54mm miniatures?
Weren't Lord of the Rings Hex figures considerably larger than usual? They might be a good fit if you're looking for a larger scale of miniature.
