These are the fellas I'm talking about:

I seem to remember someone posting pictures of their painted ones but, for the life of me, I can't track them down.

Can someone help?

Thanks.

No, mine took a little trip to Tennessee to go live with RighteousRude. Hopefully he will get around to them sometime soon.

Aha.

Then I'll pester RR until he gets them painted and posts some pics. :)

Those look nice! I really like the QRF ALIENS figs. Lord knows I have enough of them. I have over a 100 ALIENS painted. A few packs of Pred's and a platoon of Colonial infantry with Combat Wombat APC's. I even have their civilians painted (Ripley and Newt).

Thanks,

John

Someone mention little ole me?
Jeff sent me an awesome batch of 15mm goodies!!! Including the Preds mentioned above. Thanks for posting the pics, they will prove most helpful in my quest to get them painted.
Did I mention Jeff is Jelly on Toast!!!

Hi guys, just seen the mini's your talking about and liked them so much I just ordered a load which I am itching to paint.

Can anyone suggest a rules set suitable for an AVP/Aliens colonial marines type 15mm encounter pls?

FYI; I discovered some 28mm Predator (esk) aliens if anyones interested at; link They are listed as FW25 Hunter aliens & FW32 Hunter aliens with guns

Hope you enjoy these as much as I enjoyed the 15mm QRF stuff.

Regards

Chris

John,

Is there anything there on Preds? Maybe I was looking in the wrong place.

Thanks.

Many thanks John.

If anyone has any rules for an AVP encounter as well i'd be very keen to hear.

Does anyone know where I can get a 15mm APC? I am not keen on the QRF or GZG ones and was hoping for one nearer to the old Leading edge games offering; picture

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Kind regards

Chris

try Komani for APC approx 15mm – EBay?

John Leahy Sponsoring Member of TMP24 Sep 2009 6:49 p.m. PST

Hi. The Preds are addressed in the revised rule set of the 2nd link.

Predators

Count each Predator as you would an Alien Warrior. APs: 6; Close Combat: 3; Combi-Weapon Range:12; To Hit: 5 (auto for Eggs or Face-Huggers); Attack Dice: 2.


I use the APC's from Combat Wombat. They are a pretty solid reflection of the one from the movie.

Heavy Assault IFV Wheeled
L70mm W30mm H25mm
AIFV-W $9/$24 for 3

link

Sadly, they aren't available for about a year. You could try Gzg.

Thanks,

John

I forgot to mention that I have played these rules several times with indoor and outdoor scenarios. I used my Space Hulk tiles for the indoor ones. The games were great! For ALIENS style games I heartily endorse them.

Thanks,

John

Thanks for the Links and advise John. Much appreciated.

For future reference if anyone else is trying to track down suitable APC mini's; I have just managed to pick up an Aliens Micromachines APC from ebay. The spec 5.5cm long 2.5cm wide so should sit as well as purpose made 15mm vehicles with the QRF marines. I only wanted the one so was willing to pay the £9.50.

Thanks for all the assistance. Once I have got some of the mini's painted up I will post some pics for your views.

Regards

Chris
