Someone posted somewhere on the board a scale image of what a tank would look like in an accurately-scaled hex. I've done a similar thing, but added in a section of infantry.

Excellent, almost didn't see the infanteers. It will come in handy when explaining the scale of the game to others, Thanks a lot, Panzer Bob

No problem Bob, glad to contribute, if only in a small way. The infantry are indeed very small compared to a whole hex, aren't they? Makes it a little less maddening when you watch a tank spray a hex with machinegun fire from a 'mere' two or three hexes away and not get a hit http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif

A thought, it would be nice to see an example from a standard air recon height as it would demonstrate the difficulty of spotting such targets.
