============ OGREverse list, Mar 10th (Last: Mar 7th) ============= ===== Finding Ogre/GEV From: Barak Engel ===== Length of an ogre From: VIPER394 ------------------------------ From: Barak Engel Subject: Finding Ogre/GEV Henry hi, 10x for the info! > Currently SJG has only two OGRE/GEV titles in print: The OGRE/GEV > combined edition with the maps, rules and counters from the two separate > games and the Ogre Miniatures Book with all the rules and units from the > board game and more recast into miniatures rules. Yes, these are the ones I am looking for... but I cant seem to find them for sale anywhere, not even on SJG's own website! That is why I originally wrote to you - do you have ANY idea where I can buy them? I need a shop who is willing to mail order internationally, as finding these in Israel would be harder than signing a full middle eastern peace treaty. 10x again, Barak p.s. I will subscribe to the mailing list - but I want to have the games first... I remember playing the computerized Ogre version on my Apple 2e, a long long time ago, and I would really like to find the "real" one! ----- [A mistake on my part, the combined edition is no longer in print, but check this page to find dealers that might have it anyway... http://www.sjgames.com/general/outofprint.html -HJC] ------------------------------ From: VIPER394 Subject: Length of an ogre > My Fencer is 8 by 4 by 1.5 cm which scales to: 23, 11 and 4.3 > meters. -HJC] huh??? a 30 ton WWII tank the general lee is almost 4 meters tall my mesurments on the Ral partha vehicles I have is 3 3/8 inches 1 1/2 inches and 7/8 inches sorry i dont have a metric tape mesure I thought I did when I whent to mesure it this works out to at 1/285th scale 80 feet 1 inch by 35 feet 7 1/2 inches by 20 feet 9 3/8 inches acording to all the pictures I have seen of mk Vs this would be more acurate I remember scaleing my one mk V (now sadly distroyed) as being somewere around 50 feet +/- 10% to the top of the radar dome ------ [An obvious mistake in scale, as few WW-II tanks were wider than a locomotive.
