Hi,


I'm wondering if it exists some good (and cheaper) proxies for Battletech, especially for human-sized soldiers, tanks, aircrafts, etc... ?


thank you !

At this scale, you can probably just use modern infantry by GHQ etc.

Ground Zero Games have lots of futuristic vehicles in their Dirtside range.

There's a LOT of campanies that make 6mm sci-fi lines, it's a very popular scale. The biggest problem is many of these 6mm companies are based in the UK and you need to watch the shipping costs to the USA.

As Cherno said, GZG is one of the more popular companies and with good reason, they make great stuff.

http://www.darkrealmminiatures.com/index.php dark realm also has some fantastic infantry and vehicles, including their totally-not-halo-because-those-are-trademarked Pax Arcadian vehicles and infantry, among others

http://www.exoduswars.com/Exodus-Wars-6mm/b/1479770031?ie=UTF8&title=Exodus%20Wars%206mm Exodus Wars is another line of great sci-fi infantry, power armor and vehicles

http://www.microworldgames.com/collections/6mm-scifi/TEF Microworld makes some really awesome sci-fi and fantasy figs/vehicles/monsters

http://plasmablastgames.com/shop.html Plasmablast also makes a line of very nice hi-tech sci-fi vehicles

http://www.brigademodels.co.uk/6mmSF/index.html Brigade models makes many lines of figures, including a 6mm and a 15mm line

http://www.pfc-cinc.com/page/page/295095.htm C-in-C workshop makes a large line of sci-fi, modern, and historicle vehicles in 1/285 which is 6mm.

Lots of good stuff out there, and most of it is relatively cheap in this scale.
