Hello all. I have a hankering for a steampunk style steamtank to go with my Kallistra 10mm Dwarf army. I know there is a dwarven armoured car in the Kallistra range, but I'm not too keen on it. Some of the Dystopian wars miniatures look like they might work quite well as steam tanks instead, but I'm not sure on sizes? How big are, say, the heavy tanks and the Landships? Could something like this be used as a 2-3 man (Dwarf) steam tank? link

Dystopian is 1/1200 scale with 1/600 details (doors and windows) They look good but they are tiny. Some of them might work in 10mm but mostly just the tanks and bombards. The landships are massive for the scale so they would look weird if scaled up. Lots of little details like ladders and walkways. |

Ooh. I quite like that. Do you know what size base that is on? G. |

How 'bout for Net Epic (6mm)? Too large? They look right. |

How about the GW Warmaster Empire Steamtank? It's 10mm.
I was thinking I could use one with 15mm troops but proportionally is just that bit too small.

I always loved the DW Dwarf Battleriders.
The commander is 15mm, just clip him off and you are good to go! The art'y would work too if you switch out the gunners. link |

@Goober- That is a 50x50 base. |

goes beyond the straight line.
