Why was 1/56 scale adopted for war-gaming when it would be a better scale for scale modelers who instead use stupid shit like 1/35 or 1/48? 1/56 would better balance individuals and equipment allowing planes, vehicles and people all to be represented in one collection. Where as gamers uses 1/56 but should use 1/72 or O scale to better utilize gaming surface and make shit playable

Almost everyone in their niche of the hobby is enjoying it wrong except for people who collect and play 1/144 or 10-12mm scale

1. Someone did something for no particular reason, without thinking about future implications
2. Someone else was inspired by them and copied it
3. It became a de facto standard

Why would the inertia of decades of convention and investment be greater than the hangups of one autistic retard on 4chan? Who knows

Sneaky!

What do you get out of this? Like genuinely? Just because you aren't familiar with wargames doesn't mean all of them are in 28mm. There are plenty of games in 15mm, 6mm, 10mm, etc... and all it took to check that those have been a thing was just a bit of googling.
