I plan to have a super villain stage hostage situation occur at O'Hare airport in Chicago. In putting this down on paper (or battle mat) for miniatures I would like to have some sort of scale. What do you think the width of the concourse 5 would be? Maybe 150'?

I've spent all too much time at O'Hare. You're probably not far off: I'd guess about 30 metres - say 100 feet - or maybe a little more. However, much of the space on both side is taken up by small shops/kiosks, so the space in-between is only about half that in many places.

cheers, Mark

Recently while working out a death trap for my players I realized just how easy it is for them to cover great distances. The full length of the concourse my only be 15-20" in hero terms a full move for a lot of heroes and only a half move for some.
