IIRC, Irregular makes them for their WWI line ... But it's a bit small for most ... like most 1/285th scale is. But it would be a start for a convertion ... And I know some one make a 1/144th scale rail gun and that with mods would work too ... I'm sure one of the others here know ...

There was a company out of Quebec salled Leva Productions that did resin terrain that as I recall included a 1:300 railway gun... I believe they have a distributor in the US currently as well... http://home.fuse.net/nafziger/LesBat_cat.html I unfortunately don't see the railway gun listed but it might be worth dropping a line to them to see. Leva's terrain is usually pretty decent. |

1/144th rail guns are very commonly available, but they are seriously huge compared to Epic. A Leopold would be bigger than a Capital Imperialus with an Ordinatus weapon mounted on it The Morser Karl types might come in about CI size.....still seriously 'UGE though. Both types can be bought as kits or pre-finished models by Dragon, and Trumpeter do a model of the Karl.

(Cuban Commissar @ Dec. 29 2006,10:59) QUOTE Although I really like these models I do feel that they're soewhat small for a Super HEavy Gun. A regular Basilisk or Bombard will look much beefier than these models |

Hi Nicodemus, Check out Bob's microarmor site. There is a prominent link at the 6mm-minis Yahoo E-group. He has a pictoral page with currently available models shown. Shalom, Maksim-Smelchak. |

That GHQ "Karl" is nice, and may be a good place to start for a conversion ... but it is a bit small, as I said, like most 1/285 is. The 1/144th scale Dragon is nice, I remember now, and may be a better base for a conversion. IIRC, some one here was doing that ? IT would be the size of a very BIG Ordinatus ! BOOOOOooooomm ! |

Oddly enough L4 that would have been me with the Morser conversion: Chassis & Gun Cradle - Dragon's 1:144 Karl Morser kit Gun Tube - Flames of War 90mm Italian field gun barrel Ammo Hoist - GHQ's Karl Morser ammo hoist Total cost - $11 Canadian |
