12mm is commonly and incorrectly thought of as 1:144 scale. The two are very different in size.
12mm wargaming scale is 1:160 model scale, which is also used in mainland Europe and the US as their N-gauge railway modelling scale.
1:144 should more correctly be referred to as 13mm wargames scale, but is still slightly oversize for the 1:148 British N-gauge railway modelling scale.
As you can see from the above statements, the commonly held belief amongst wargamers that 12mm is 1:144, is not only incorrect, but is only one misconception amongst many within a very narrow sizes-band that has several common, scale nomenclatures.

Long Range Logistics 12-13mm Ranges
Long Range Logistics has not as yet designed a range of specifically 12-13mm scale buildings and scenics, although many of our models with uniScale rating do in fact work excellently with the 12mm group of scales.
As with many of the smaller wargaming scales, we have compiled a list of in-demand building designs, began the drawings and the style-research, and hope to release the first batches sometime soon, until then, look for our “uniScale” models which can be used with multiple scales, including 12mm.
