I mostly play 20mm modern games, many posted at my blog. I fooled around a bit with an alien invasion of modern earth in a couple of games: link And link I want to take this and expand it, with some aliens that aren't repurposed Tau from 40k. I'm looking for something like the aliens from the Battle of Los Angeles or that Battleship movie. All of the good candidates I've found have been 15mm (tall ones in that scale) or 28mm. A bit of scale mismatch is fine. Looking for recommendations. Current candidates: Rebel Valonians rebelminis.com/vain.html Clear Horizon Hura link Reaper Kulathi link Khurasan Invaders CP Models Stealth Troopers link Appreciate any input and recommendations!

I mix Starguard! tin-soldier.com/sgdp.html and Blasted Planets blastedplanets.com with my 1/72 stuff. Scales pretty well together. Not sure you will find what you're looking for though.

While not exactly what I was after, I went for the Elheim Hives… link Their Not-Blakes 7, Not-Federation types might work for a more humanoid enemy, although they lack heavy weapons…

Real aliens would just nuke us from orbit. It's the only way to be sure. :)
