Do you prefer to battle monster on monster, as god intended or he would not have created giant monsters in the first place!…or monsters versus men and their technology?

If men and tech, do you use 1/285th / 6mm or another size/scale?

Roooowrrrr!

Here is an interesting piece of kaiju vs tech picture

I can happily do either… maybe a slight preference for having some human involvement of some form.
We use 6mm scenery/troops… I've even got some tiny Science Patrol VTOL jets.

Very cool! Pics please!

Mostly monster v.monster. Sometimes with 1/285 squishies thrown in.

Cpt Arexu26 May 2011 2:50 p.m. PST

Both, in 6mm and 3mm.

I enjoy both. Monster vs Monster on most occasions, but sometimes a nice army vs giant monster is very cool.

Usually in 6mm.

Cheers,
Ben.

Versus giant stompy samuri robots? 6mm or 10mm (n-scale)…

I use mazer tanks and super weapons. I have a miniature Gatchaman God Phoenix and a Legion of Doom which I use with my 6" Bandai figures.

I also use micro machine tanks.

I like Monster vs Monster. I would like to get some 3mm military minis from picoarmor.com for some Monster vs. human action.

Thieses, great vehicle!

Caveat: thread necromancy and I'm still assembling my stuff after reading through Ganesha's Mighty Monsters.

I think the puny humans get short shrift. You could have conventional forces, sure, but supplement them with electrical barriers, missile turrets, spotlights to blind kaiju with, power armor, manned robots, etc. I thought the fight between Big G and that flying mecha-tank in Godzilla 1984 was pretty epic – and evenly matched!

Also like the idea of a 3-player scenario – two with monsters trying to destroy a city/each other and an army player trying to stop them!

Plenty of giant monsters come back from the dead, why not posts about them as well. ;)

I prefer monster vs monster battles, but enjoy a good human stomping on occasion. That's why I included the minion and swarm rules in Giant Monster Rampage Deluxe and the new squad rules in Atomic Super Humans Deluxe.

I still mainly game Monster Vs. Monster but I have plenty of human fodder to feed my Kaiju. The humans actually one recently.
