And the artillery would totally ignore your idea as well, with 81mm mortars then suppressing half a kilometre. Infantry leaders with no radio would have "voice" control of teams 750m or so away, etc. What would you then do with regards to off-map arty, which starts at 200 hex range?. How about stacking - if a hex is 250m, why should a 4 man team in the hex add a point to a passing tank platoon's move cost?.

Basically - changing things does not work, whether trying to make it a 250m hex or a 10m one. The game system is built on 50 metre hexes.
