RELATIVE FIGURE SCALES

On the HotT mailing list, John Desmond put this together. Since the time that I swiped it, I have been adding to it as more information becomes available.

Salutations, gentlefolk,
Wrote this list up awhile back, thought might be time to 'air it out' again... Comments are still welcome. I thought it might be a good thing to have a guide to the relative size and proportions of various manufacturers' figures. I've tried to number the sizes so that purchasers who desire an army of uniform appearance may pick figures seperated by one or two numbers, and those wishing an irregular look can avoid the appearance of an alliance of giants and dwarves...
Corrections and additions are welcome. As my miniature gaming interests lie only in the period from Marathon to Mohammed, experts in the miniatures of the Bronze Age, Dark Age, and Medieval eras are especially invited to add their comments.
