Who makes some good proxies – similar in style that they mix well together on the table – for various vehicles used by Epic 40k IG?.

Some of the Dystopian Wars tanks and landships have a good I.G. feel about them.

Try and see if you can get some of the Mech Warrior Miniatures.

They can cover everything from transports to super heavies.

Gotta be careful with the Mech Warrior stuff, though. At least in the old days, scale was not consistent.

Artraccoon08 Apr 2013 9:15 a.m. PST

What scale are the Dystopian Wars minis?

Logain08 Apr 2013 11:54 a.m. PST

Dystopian are roughly 3mm. Khurasan a few good tanks that would fit the bill. They are very nice, and a great deal compared to others. Brigade models has alot of nice ones too, that would fit in good. Also if you can get them from Old Crow, they sell a variety of different 6mm turrets, that allow you to mount different weapon systems on the same chassis

Actually the Mech Warrior stuff does scale fairly okay.

As you can see in the above photo the Mech Warrior stuff does scale if 40K Epic stuff.

Plus it is far cheaper than the GW stuff and you can find models to use for these forces, Imperial Guard, Squats, Orks and Eldar.

Troll & Toad and a very good place to find them.

Here aresome examples of vehicles that you can get for just $0.35 USD per model.

Compare that with GW prices.
