Although purist scale modellers will always advocate purity of segregation for the huge array of scales in their hobby, it is necessary for the rail and wargames modeller to group close-sized scales together if they are to bring such products into their activities.
Fortunately, many of the scale modelling sizes are near exact matches for both of the other hobbies, and therefore in the list below, we are able to shorten the options to those that fit exactly, or very closely, with the scales used by wargamers. This list forms the structure of model scale categories in the lists of items for sale we present here.
(main text incomplete – to be expanded)
- 1:3000 / 1:2400 / 1:1200
- These micro scales have the same scale name in wargaming’s micro naval.
- 1:600
- Also used for wargaming micro naval (coastal actions) the ratio scale is usually used to identify model size
- 1:300 / 1:285
- equates to 6mm in wargaming scales
- 1:200
- equates to 10mm wargaming scale in common acceptance
- 1:160 / 1:144
- strictly mapping as 12mm & 13mm, they are treated as 12mm wargaming scale and equate to UK & US N-gauge rail scales
- 1:120
- equates to true 15mm wargaming scale
- 1:100 / 1:96
- incorrectly referred to as wargaming 15mm scale, it is not, it is 18mm, but is correct for rail modelling TT-gauge scales
- 1:76 / 1:72
- strictly mapping as 24mm / OO-gauge, and 25mm wargames scales, 1:72 is the scale that began the (25)mm naming system in wargames.
- 1:64
- maps down to 28mm wargaming scale but equates to railway S-gauge and micro-scale Scalextric
- 1:48
- does not have a wargaming equivalent, but equates to O-gauge rail scale
- 1:32
- equates to 58mm at wargames scale and to full scale Scalextric
