The vehicle generation program saves lots of time. Also I have taken into account Mr. Gibsons suggested generic infantry rules.Depends on what you mean with "figs for DSII" :-/ GZG makes 6mm infantry > based on their 25mm NSL troops, as well as 6mm versions of their 25mm This is what I needed thanks. > However, although these models are made by the same company as DSII, I already have many different brands of 6mm figs, I just wanted to know if they had more DSII stuff because I like the look of their Stargrunt figs and would like to adquire the equivalent 6mm figs when they are available (I think thats what their DSII is doing, recreating the same models from stargrunt at a smaller scale). GW engenders pretty strong emotions. I myself have made similar outbursts. Thier prices, marketing schemes and blatant disregard for customer loyalty makes my teeth chatter. I do however try to use DSII as a vehicle to which "convert" GW gamers to other better systems (stargrunt II is also a blast). I firmly believe that GW ascendancy as more to due with the games exposure and general availability than with quality (in its rules, I do admit the models are very nice if insanely priced). If I can show them a system where they can use whatever they have and that its fun, so much the better. Having a list of conversions handy is just a toll for making this sort of task easier. Thanks for the help.
