I was curious about the ground scale in the HPS Campaign Games. Examining the Gettysburg Campaign maps I have come up with a scale of about 130 yards to the hex. Is this correct, or close? Is there any documentation from HPS that states the exact ground scale?
Also is the scale of each individual title the same? In other words is "Gettysburg" the same scale as say "Peninsula Campaign?"

It's 125 yds/hex, and the scale is the same for all of the games.

The only exception I know of is my company level scenarios for Big Bethel & Blackburn Ford (for the Corinth engine), which have a ground scale of approx. 40yds per hex (ie. I've used the same scale as for the EAW series)

And BOTH of these scenarios are excellent and give you many options and are tough nuts to crack, from either side.
