Yes, I have both G/W and F/W models in my forces. As we have discussed before, the size differences are a bit annoying ... but we work with it !

The FW chimeras and artillery are the same size as the SG stuff though, right?!

The track width is smaller making them appear a bit more delicate. Also the lack of side sponsons of course plays a part. The FW artillery looks nice used along SG models though the Basilisk guns are pretty thin compared to the SG ones. However the E40k variant hulls with extra armour plating does look rather large.
I'm not gatting any FW fllyers because of the size problem. However I do like the Marauder Destroyer model so perhaps at some point I'll have to invent some special rules for it and use it as an IG Heavy Bomber.
Cheers!

Yes, for some of the aircraft, F/W's are so much bigger we may have to make up their own stats...  ?
F/W's L/Russes are smaller while their Heavies are Bigger, than GW/SG?! ?
The Chimeras are close enough. ?
The FA, F/W's look like SP 88mm while GW/SG's like 150mm guns. But like I said, we work with it...
Most of my F/W AFVs are in the same Rgts.
However, I mentioned this before, if you look at the France 1940 Campaign, the sizes of the AFVs used there, varied greatly. ?
Historical analogy... Works for me!

Hi!
L4, that was the solution we went for in netepic. Larger models were given their own stats and passed off as "heavier" versions.
