6mm skirmish on hex grid

To keep from having to do a lot measuring and precise placement of miniatures, I decided to try out a hex-grid. I think it's going to work quite well. This works out to 0.5" from center to center of each hex.

I think it's a good idea. I can measure distances by counting hexes (and not be too far off), and I like the slight 'uncertainty' about a figures actual position that it adds. Line of sight should be pretty easy to figure out as well.

It looks like about 3 figures can fit in any given hex, which sounds about right. I guess you'd have to let figures in neighboring hexes fight in close combat as well as figures in the same hex. Perhaps only allow friendly figures to share hexes?

Magnetized Epic-scale building ruins (and Squats!)

I magnetized a bunch of ruins for the 6mm skirmish set. This is really starting to come together. A little one-sided in that it's all ruined walls, but I think a few more solid pieces will round out the set nicely.

I'm also happy to have scored some Squats on eBay, so I have another (of my favorites!) retinue for ItEN.
