28 mm Sci Fi (Stargrunt 2) {legacy}: Blarad (aliens) with Rauwoof (Aliens) and
Whistler (aliens) Mercs (Stan
Johansen figures) - partial Platoon at 10 + 25 + 10 figures Building
SLOWLY and Very low priority
25 mm Sci Fi (Stargrunt 2) {legacy}:
NPC : (In mail) GZG New Israelis - new platoon building (partial at
circa
26 figures) - will stop at one Platoon.
IC: saving money to buy GZG - will stop at one Platoon.
UNSC: 8 figures (GZG) (may or may not continue, else (more likely) will
convert to someone's PA or Robotic force or sell or trade) Misc. Individual
Mercs: 7 Figures ('specialists')
15 mm Sci Fi (Stargrunt 2):
IC using OOP figures (50 figures) - would like to see 6 mm GZG figures
***
NPC using OOP figures (54 figures) - OOP may be replaced with GZG NI
LLAR using OOP for lights and Alternative Armies for PA (32 +36) **
PHR using OOP figures (29 figures) *** NEA using OOP figures (29 figures) * RH
using OOP figures (50 figures) Mech Warriors (30 figures)
* replacements sought eventually ** replacement lights sought eventually ***
replaced OOP will go here
6 mm Sci Fi (Dirtside):
IC, NPC, LLAR, PHR, NEA, RH - currently a mix of GZG, H&R WW 1, and
'others' mounted as FTs on 'bingo chips' with Brigade
Models/GZG/Irregualr/'Moderns' for vehicles.
I am attempting to get the 15 mm and 6 mm rationalized and am thinking of
buying GZG NI for 15 mm for the NPC.
Gracias,
As I can't find anymore opponents right now, I'm actually
collecting/painting more than I'm playing. But I have different models
for APCs for my 25 mm and 6 mm SF armies (I only have ancients in 15 mm).
For 6 mm:
I'm building a wheeled force based on modern GHQ's LAV and LAVIII (Stryker)
vehicles, with NSL infantry. Right now I've got a company+ sized task
force
with Strykers as APCs, LAV/AT's as anti-tank, old LAV command/logistic
carriers as mortars, kit-bashed Vulcan/Cougars as anti-air, and gun
LAVs. Some of my "gun LAVs" are kitbashed GHQ wheeled minis with Renegade
Legion turrets. I have a bunch of RL miniatures too, but haven't had time to
paint them.
I have a bunch of old RAFM/GHQ lead minis of various models of M60s and
old West German Jaguars (with no missiles), that I plan to use as an OPFOR's
tanks and APCs.
For 25 mm:
I've got NSL 25 mm infantry, but DLD's excellent resin 25 mm wheeled APCs.
Unfortunately I haven't had time to paint either.

I find it interesting that for the first time I can remember people are
actually seriously thinking about matching armies for different
scales/rules (as in Stargrunt and Dirtside in my case - although I have
two forces forming in Full Thrust also) but the same 'nation'! In my case,
it's 25 mm for Stargrunt 2 (legacy,) 15 mm for Stargrunt 2
(mainly,) 6 mm for Dirtside 2 - with representations in all three for
certain forces/nations.
I can remember when the expectation was you would be a single scale person in
most cases.
I wonder if the aspect of 'related' rules (again - FT/SG2/DS2 in my
case) has made this more palatable. Or if this is just a sign of a 'maturing'
industry/hobby?

LOL, I don't know if it's the industry/hobby maturation or my own
mental atrophy due to my own maturation.........)
