I'm down to clown.

Good recent example of petre's point would be looking at the scale of the new bloodthirster kit versus the previous one. It begins to become a LoS concern at those scales. Another reason would be the base size differences can make an impact, positive or negative. Flesh hounds just went from bike ovals to 50mm rounds and this changes how the unit as a whole since its footprint is now much larger.

Again, I'd be game for playing with old models, but I try to keep my stuff based to current proportions and my counts-as models are of relative same size. I also wouldn't want to ditch old models just because their old. I've rehabbed a number already.
