GW games, both fantasy and 40k use Inches for distances in their Engllish language versions. IIRC the transaltions into other languages use some kind of metric conversion.

Grains. I haven't seen a lot of decigram calibrated scales out there. But then I guess that a lot of metric countries don't have people loading their own ammunition. Still, bringing it back on topic, perhaps I'm old school but the only game I can think off off the top of my head what uses Metric for measurement is the GW crowd of games. Everything else seems to use Inches for distance. -- -- Ryan Gill [EMAIL PROTECTED] ---------------------------------------------------------- | | | -==---- | O--=- | | /_8[*]°_\ |_/|o|_\_| | _________ | /_[===]_\ / 00DA61 \ |/---------\| __/ \--- _w/|=_[__]_= \w_ // [_] o[]\\ _oO_\ /_O|_ |: O(4) == O :| _Oo\=======/_O_ |____\ /____| |---\________/---| [__O_______W__] |x||_\ /_||x| |s|\ /|s| |s|/BSV 575\|s| |x|-\| |/-|x| |s|=\______/=|s| |s|=|_____|=|s| |x|--|_____|--|x| |s| |s| |s| |s| |x| |x| '60 Daimler Ferret '42 Daimler Dingo '42 Humber MkIV (1/3) ---------------------------------------------------------- _______________________________________________ Gzg-l mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://vermouth.csua.berkeley.edu:1337/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/gzg-l --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ground Zero Games" group.
