Still hard to better Combined Arms, the old Command Decision modern variant if your tastes range to battalion and brigade sized actions.

I always thought of it as a 6mm set of rules.

We played it as 6mm back in the day (when it first came out) but it's reasonably scale agnostic having alternate basing for 15 and 20mm. IIRC it's WW2 brother was the reason for the (then Skytrex?) Command Decision range of 15mm miniatures. I've even used the WW1 variant with 28mm, by substituting a figure for each platoon sized base.

The gaming engine with its reliance on progressive damage and lotsa chits underwent revision in CDIV and the changes are readily made to earlier additions.

I always thought of it as a 6mm set of rules.

We always played it in 15mm back in the day, pre-Battlefront, so we used mainly Quality Castings miniatures. Great set of rules, but it did take a very large table. I think it would be ideal in 6-12mm if you were aiming for operational scale gaming, as we were.

Once I get my workshop cleared out (new addition underway, full of junk), I do plan to get back to some modern gaming using these rules. There is sort of a post-Soviet civil war going on, after all, for which the Team Yankee figures will be ideal for. Luckily, I do have a big enough space for a good game.
