Project Star Wars part 21: the Millennium Falcon

While browsing the internet for Star Wars stuff I came across The Ghost:


It looked big enough for 28mm games and the included figures are listed as 1 inch from head to toe.
The Ghost is however a bit pricey, but I found a ship from the same Micro Galaxy Squadron series which was cheaper from a reliable web store. The Millennium Falcon.


Now I already knew this Falcon would be smaller than it would be if it were actually in scale with 28mm miniatures. A bit smaller wouldn't be a problem since things are often scaled down for the tabletop (e.g. buildings). This Millennium Falcon is however pushing the envelope.

But from the gamer's bird's eye view it doesn't look that bad.


Inside it's a bit cramped though.


I think I'll keep the Millennium Falcon despite its diminutive size. As a terrain piece or for "get to the shuttle!" scenarios it will do.
I'll pass on the Ghost though.

Wee man Han
