hey guys, i'm looking at starting a Kreig army, multi regiment

the issue i'm having is, none of the mini's i can find look anything like kreigsmen, or guard vehicles! it's a huge irritation for me, especially since GW/FW canned production of all epic scale mini's

this might have been asked before, sorry if it has, but i couldn't find anything on the search function!

Exodus Wars marcovan infantry, especially the greatcoat dudes on the heavy weapons sprue are totally nothing like Krieg at all..... apart from the gas masks and greatcoats of course...

DRM industrial infantry make excellent krieg infantry proxies too

if you're insistent on having pretty much exact copies of the GW vehicles you're going to be disappointed..... EW produce the Gaia which is a big dozer-bladed heavy transport and a perfect gorgon proxy, and there are many light tanks which work as centaurs..... honestly if you want a GW style force, then be prepared to pay through the nose for now OOP models, you could do worse than checking the various epic FB groups as people often sell their old armies off, there is a 6/10mm specific trade group you could join

don't mind it not really being exactly like the GW mini's, but a resemblance, would be nice, especially for the heavy/superheavy vehicles

troublemaker games looks like the current go for vehicles, i'll check out the exodus wars stuff, thanks heaps!

I am using DRM Industrial Infantry for my Krieg army and love them!

Overall, i second the Exodus Wars recommendation and Troublemaker is about to release some greatcoat infantry, if i am not mistaken.

Yup we should have our Greatcoat range (including heavy infantry transports) out in a few short weeks.

All off being cast right now.

When we finally get our plastics out, we'll have an artillery version of our IFV hull (using a metal plug-on that's already been cast).
We're considering doing an artillery variant on our Churchillian hull as well at some point.
