Playing at a Different Scale

Parent page 2. Pick the Battlefield

Troops take up a lot of space on the battlefield. This can be a fun twist if you’re using a digital tabletop that lets you zoom in and out or if you have plenty of space and gaming miniatures to indicate the scale. In other situations, it might work better for your playing space to change the scale of your map for a troop skirmish. You might want to play using a 10-foot scale, with each segment of a troop filling one square. If you do, you’ll need to take care of two main tasks.

Rounding Movement and Size: It’s usually best to round up movement and sizes to the nearest 10 feet. This makes a 25-foot speed travel 3 squares, has a Medium or Small creature fill 1 square, and has a Huge creature fill a 2 × 2 space.
