After consulting some industry folks for their opinions, 28mm scale would keep my figure lines compatible with not just modern miniatures, but modern map tools (Dundjinni, WoTC map tiles) etc. that players are currently using.

I have 6,000 miniature in 25mm scale and I'm not about to start over at 28mm.It does matter and if someone is considering making miniatures in an "old school" style, the size should match as well.There is a reason why Ral Partha 25mm AD&D 11-series miniatures sell for 3 to 10 times what Reaper offers and 3 to 100 times what the plastic mini's go for.So, again, I state the need for such a line of 25mm compatible miniatures.Futures Bright,Paul
