You know I have been thinking of an idea.

Using 40K epic armies as alternative universe pulp WWII.

I thought that was what it was already. Just kidding.?:p

Serious, are you thinking like IG as one country and Marines as another?

Yep that was exactly what I was thinking.

Once I decided I was not going to get an army beyond the IG and Space marines I have.  I set about deviding my Imperial forces to fight eac other

Marines (Dark Angels)
Titans
Thunderbolts
Maruader Bombers
one one side...

Mech IG
Super Heavy Tanks
Lighting fighters
on the other...

Then I thought that would make a cool WWII pulp battle as well.

I have some PenDraken 10mm Lizardmen with ranged weapons and Dinos with Hvy Wpns plus their 10mm Predator movie aliens. Working on some 10-15mm Lizardmen structures like in the lastest W/D, too...

Thinking about a scenario with 2 Epic forces like IG or SM vs. Eldar or Chaos or Orks (Feral Orks !). With Lizardmen trying to defend their jungle and the Predators on a hunting expedition! I see a movie here! :D

Hi L-4,

L-4: I have some PenDraken 10mm Lizardmen with ranged weapons and Dinos with Hvy Wpns plus their 10mm Predator movie aliens. Working on some 10-15mm Lizardmen structures like in the lastest W/D, too...


I'd forgotten about those. Those would be good minis for "Uller Uprising" by H. Beam Piper! :)

Shabbat Shalom,
Maksim-Smelchak.

Maksim,

You are not allowed to start another project until the Hoth stuff is done and pictures posted. ?:p

Just kidding. ?:laugh:

No worries... just thinking about it for the future! :D

I need to buy some more magnets (for basing) to get the Hoth project going again... been dragging my feet on that.

Shabbat Shalom,
Maksim-Smelchak.

I must say, I am in a sort of "Pot calling the kettle black" moment here. If you knew how many projects are waiting for finalization in my stuff, you would know how funny this is. :D

In any case, I am looking forward to seeing the Hoth stuff in some sort of final stage. I know you have put a lot of effort into it.

Hi!

Maksim, I have those sci-fi lizardmen from Pendraken as well. They are used as proxies in the Dracon armies in the NetEpic Slann army list. Very nice models.

Primarch.

Are they small 10mm or just look large?

No they are a little bigger than Ogryn. One per/base is how I'm going to it ! :;):

Hi!

They are nominally 10mm, as L4 says they are slightly larger than Ogryns. I use 2 lizardmen per base and one of the mounted type. They dont look out of place compared to the rest of the epic line which isnt too scale consistent either..... :;):

Yes, I'll use one Dino rider per base, too.  And since they are aliens ... the L/men and Preds can be a little bigger ... they're aliens ! :o

I think that is what I was wondering about. I do not mind if something looks "smaller" or Larger" so much as "Does it look out of place."
