Hey all. Question here. I couldn't find a similar thread on what I wanted to ask so figured id do just that. Ask.

Basically I wanted to know what size war hammer miniatures are. Also i was wondering if these models are the same size as the chaos warriors line of miniatures.

Games Workshop tends to use what is known as 28mm Heroic scale. That should mean that the height of the model's eyes is about 28mm above the base. The "heroic" part means that the models tend to be overly beefy and have huge weapons.

The models you kinked are 32mm scale, so they would be a bit bigger perhaps than normal GW infantry, but the fact that they come on the same 25mm size base would indicate they could probably work fine.

Awesome answer. thanks for that. And ya there suppose to be characters so having them a little bit bigger is not necessarily a bad thing XD

Most 32mm would look close enough anyway, perhaps the slightest bit taller for some and with better proportions. For bulkier ones like marines and WoC they'll generally blend in better anyway.

My sig sort of works as a constant scale as there's a couple of 32mms mixed in there.
