If playing on the floor is your thing!
Personally, I'm a bit long in the tooth to try this scale for gaming.
I laugh in the face of danger - then I hide until it goes away!
Hmmm, need to assemble & paint the models first. I used to be a plastic modeler back in the 80s, wouldn't want to start again.
Well....thinking aloud. What about sizing up everything?
Taking inspiration from giant chess, imagine giant WoG played outdoor. 1:33 planes on 4x30 cm pegs on 50cm bases...
I used to play Mustangs & Messerschmitts in the 80s using 1:72 scale planes; wheeled dollies on the floor.
I seem to remember somewhere here is a thread about a way of making the bases so they can be played with while standing.
If you have a tiles or closed napped carpeted floor space big enough, I say go for it.
Certainly 1:72 planes are easier to decal than 1:200
Rule of thumb: scan and double the size of the cards.

I think I found what I remembered:

If Dave (Naharaht) might remember where the club got the bases from, or how they were made?
I can think how I might do it, but since my 1:72 collection is not large, and still mostly in pieces, and I've lost touch with almost all the M&M crew,
my ability to do it is limited.
Still, a visual treat for a convention

That is damn cool. Walking around among the 1/72 scale planes...
The things I see here continue to astound me.
I have seen a game at some of the HMGS cons of a WW I game that uses 1/72 scals. Way different set of home rules but it was fun to watch.
This is the sort of thing that is great for convention or demo games - not quite so fun for an evening game with your mates.
It certainly has it's place.
1 : 72 for Examble.
Looks good, Boris.
