It unfortunatel...@Jon: The scales do mix very well. It unfortunately depends on the kit maker which one to purchase is the correct one in scale.<br />Macross should be purchased in 1/200 scale OR 1/170 scale when available. The Exo Squad toys are a little large, but they are WAY BETTER in scale than the 1/200 Warhammer, Archer and Rifleman. Those to me look too small in 1/200.<br />Dougram should be purchased in 1/144 period. It doesn't matter if you buy diecast or plastic they are nearly same size. there is only two in 1/200 - thats Scorpion and Goliath. Those do work fine in 1/200. You can see they are available in 1/144 as well but my blog entry proves the Goliath to be HUGE (too huge to be honest). The Clan mechs are Ral Partha Europe "MUSEUMS SCALE". They mix well with Dougram, Exo Squad and Macross kits. All other stuff is garage kits that cannot be bought online if you don't know the guys that produce them (copyright etc).<br /><br />My rules are in planning stages. They are not available yet and that's going to continue for a little longer like this. There is however a thread at the official AAG forums in which you can help contributing/testing.Chris M. aka "Sgt.

Classic Battletech at this scale, specifically with the original "unseen" 12.<br /><br />I guess it boils down to finding models at a realistic price. My biggest fear is worrying about the scale. Seems you may be mixing 1/200 and 1/144?<br /><br />Online searches for Destroid, Robotech, Macross, Dougram, CrusherJoe etc start getting confusing. I sure want to avoid any purchasing missteps.<br /><br />I too come from a long 40k background and was recently introduced to Force on Force.<br /><br />Reading your disclaimer for FoF vs Battletech makes me want to find what you've written (homebrew rules?) Is there a Tag for that?<br /><br />Anything you can help me with would be greatly appreciated. I will continue to read through your site.<br /><br />Thank you for your time, Jonjon23516https://www.blogger.com/profile/00321492738901183619noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7067419156771703385.post-85803864740896755122012-02-11T00:15:55.898+01:002012-02-11T00:15:55.898+01:00@mech dude: its my third.

With some work (and my scheme isn't really complicated, I know, I know...) you get decent results.<br /><br />Cheers<br />ChrisChris M. aka "Sgt.

I always seem to do well with it, no matter what the time period or how crap my pilot is.<br /><br />Can we see some pics of the warhammer next to some 15mm Davion soldier proxies? I'm dying to see how the two look together.Lead Legionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12700198528204457272noreply@blogger.com
