e tried several search methods and can't find a clear answer so hopefully
someone here can help - are Reaper's CAV infantry minis comparable in
size to other 15mm infantry, particularly the GZG products? I'd hate to order
some of the CAV stuff and then have to make up some sort of army background
for them to all be halflings, or something.

C CAV is 1/144 or @ 12mm. More in line with Mechwarrior Clix than 15mm.

AFAIK, the CAV range is not 15mm (I think it's 12mm?) so no, the infantry will
be much smaller than ours or any other 15mm range. I think some of the larger
CAV vehicles and Mecha can pass for 15mm, but certainly not the infantry.

l, thanks for the heads-up there guys.  I liked the looks of them for an
off-world merc force or something, but no point if the scales don't
match up. Thanks.

PS - Jon, I'm sending this from on the road, but I got a chance to take
a
good long look at my minis today - all I can say is wow.  Excellent
stuff. Will be ordering at least one more vehicle set in a couple months,
these minis are top-notch!  Just got to decide on which motive system to
go
with for a nice gameplay/thematic changeup from the grav and hover
units....
