I suspect it was my old box room which I recall was something like 6ft by 7ft at most. Not much room after the maps and force pools etc were laid out. Functional I think is the word. Still fun though!!

WiFFe: 10'11''x8'8" (332.7x264.2 cm) in an L (so no map was upside down) on two folding tables and a third card table for the production chart.

Which reminds me of one of our barbershoppers who moved from a very nice house right on the beach in Hawaii to Texas. There he bought two adjacent houses, one just to store and display his collection of Porsche minatures.

Played Global war in a 10x10 bedroom with a 8x4 table and the closet modified with two shelves for the prodction chart etc. The table had a nested top so we would put it on at the end of the day so the guy whose hose it was didn't spend all week staring at the map and figuring out his plans.

I thought that was the advantage of being the host!
