Hello All,

What minis do you use for the size 1 infantry walkers? I was looking at the
GZG ones and the Battletech Power Armor blisters (24 figs). The Battletech
look like they are smaller then the GZG ones but it is hard to tell from just
pictures.

> Hello All,

I started off using battletech 1/300th elementals they were about the
right size. I've moved on to GZG infantry walkers because they are better
figures but the size is about the same.

Someone correct me here if I'm wrong but I think the GZG's walkers are about
12-15mm high.

You can try Scotia's Combat Powered Troops (see
http://website.lineone.net/~grendel.co/scotiasf.html; Picture:

They are sufficiently larger and bulkier than other 6mm infantry to act as
size-1 walkers.

I have used them both as Hvy Power Armor (DS2 makes no distinction) and as
size-1 walkers.

Adler Miniatures has some that may work in their Dark Star line:

I use plastic GW figures, from their now OOP "Stompers" boxed set. The "Chaos
Dreadnaught" is a favorite: it's not particularly chaotic in appearance, and
instead of arms it has an RFAC on one side and a GMS on the other. Good
against infantry AND armor, and cheap to boot.

Yes, I like and use that one too. Though, by analogy with the
full-sized figure for the 'Starquest' game, that shouldn't be a GMS but
a salvo missile launcher(SLAM).
