Been thinking about a miniatures game set in the various theatres of the first world war. Sure the British and French would be represented on the Western Front, but there'd also be Austro-Hungarians, Ottomans, Russians, and Italians. Ideally smaller nations like Serbia, Romania, and Greece would be represented too, but for the time being there's already enough. Forces would be somewhere around company sized, since that's the smallest unit that would have any kind of autonomy, so Warhammer style armies of larger models would be less helpful because of how much stuff you'd need.

Units would be platoons, which could have large numbers of models each - German squads at one point had 16 men each at full strength, with 4 squads making up a platoon (although combat means it would be unlikely to have anywhere near that number of men). Platoons of armoured cars, and heavy weapons like machine guns and trench mortars, provide support options - I'm not sure how artillery would work, if it'd be included at all or not.
