Can someone tell me the exact dimensions of the following templates:

Blast
Small Teardrop
Large Teardrop
Suppression Fire

The reason why is because I plan on laser engraving/cutting my own templates. I can't find in the rules for the dimensions of any. I found on the forum that people found that the blast template is approximately the size of a CD, but I don't know of the exact dimension.

Thanks in advance!

Blast is exactly the size of a CD. Easiest to print the template pdf Corvus Belli has and check the scale with a disc.

If you want exact values, these are based on the Micro Art templates.

Blast: 4 11/16 in. diameter
Small: 8 5/16 long, 2 3/8 at its widest. The fat end is an oval not a circle.
Large: 10 3/16 long, 4 1/8 at its widest.
Suppression: Straight line 2 in. wide

Thanks!

For the suppression template you said it's 2 inches wide. How long is it?

Suppression lanes are as long as the max long range distance of the weapon being used.

Most people use string or a marker.

The length is the long range of the weapon being used, normally.

It's typically placed as far away from you as you can get whilst maintaining Line of Fire (so it will end at the point your LoF is blocked by a wall tall enough. ).

Naturally, this means the effective length of the string would be longer for a missile launcher, hmg or sniper than for a combi rifle.
