hi y'all ~ at this point, i'm proposing scale for realms. as each realm is a square on a grid, picture that square divided 16 x16. each of these squares equals a 32x32 baseplate. does this sound good to everyone? :-) we can thank m. uring for the (...) (25 years ago, 10-Feb-00, to lugnet.castle)

(...) Sounds good to me, although quite big for my humble (and tiny) collection ;-) I think you might have meant 4x4 squares, for a total of 16 baseplates? And *not* 16x16 for a total of 256 baseplates? I'm sure that even for the people out there (...) (25 years ago, 10-Feb-00, to lugnet.castle)

(...) Ummm... so one realm is 16 32x32 baseplates across? ie, 512 studs? This is *really* tiny! My castle, which is 80x80 studs, is 15% of my realm!! Consider the fact that I eventually plan to build a town around it, and big one to boot, I could (...) (25 years ago, 10-Feb-00, to lugnet.castle)

(...) Each relm has 16x16 32x32 baseplates. Which is 512 by 512 studs, so 262,144 studs. Your castle is 80x80 studs which would make it 6,400 studs. So your castle is effectively less than 2% of the realm. Once you fill it up, we'll give you (...) (25 years ago, 10-Feb-00, to lugnet.castle)
