We all know, and most of us enjoy, WYSIWYG. Beside equipment does WYSIWYG also apply to model size? Example: I have an idea rolling around in this brain of mine for a Warhammer Giant to Deff Dread conversion... Obviously they will be different sizes. How would you rule that? Granted I wouldn't be pulling a, "No, no... He's not this big... He's this big" scheme.

With true line of sight, a larger model is both a detriment to you (easier to see) and a bonus for you (can see more). I feel these things balance out, and as long as it is on the correct base size, should be OK.

I'm having the same issue with my exodites, using dinosaur models for my grav tanks. The stegosaurus I'm using for a falcon/fireprism is a good 2" taller than the regular model. As Mattlov states, it balances out in terms of LOS and cover, but get your opponent's ok before slapping him on the table.

Oh yeah, and post pics of the conversion in the P&M Blogs....
