6mmLawrence: We are not manufacturing a new line of miniatures. Neither CEW nor I want to become miniatures makers. What we want to do is make a rule set that willl allow you to play with miniatures from all of the wonderful manufacturers already out there. Polyversal will have rules for 'statting-out' your own collection. For example, my own armies have minis from Reviresco, GW, Otterman, OGRE, BAttletech, CAV, Plasmablast, Steel Crown, Gundam model kits, Scotia, Old Crow, Brigade, Silent Death, Micromachines, Mechwarrior: Dark Age ... you name it. There are plenty of wonderful models already out there. We want to promote them, and provide a unified ruleset to play with, in the spirit of Dirtside II, Future War Commander, Strike Legion, etc.
Unlike those games, our intention is to provide a boxset to start with, that will have minis from multiple manufacturers with illustrated stat cards for each. This will ease new-to-6mm players into the world of finding excellent minis from multiple sources, and will provide TacComm veterans some more metal for their collections.
