Those heavy Prussian tanks are spot on, just need to flesh out those sponson guns, methinks.

Those heavy Prussian tanks are spot on, just need to flesh out those sponson guns, methinks. I'll post more pics when I get the light tank. Not sure what extra guns to add, I suppose we really need to come up with some rules. I have also ordered a Heavy Walker which I will also use as Prussian to keep them more of a Steampunk feel. |

have to reduce scale since that is O scale. They are OO scale which is not much different than HO when it comes to Scenery |

They are OO scale which is not much different than HO when it comes to Scenery according to their site they are O scale which is twice the size of HO which also makes sense with doors being 2" high. Where does it say that? On the home page its says they are 00 Gauge compatible and the one I have download look like 00 gauge? |

They look nice. I printed off one of the free buildings (Butchers not in colour as I don't have a colour printer) Here it is quickly glued together next to the paper terrain farmhouse from the AQMF Kickstarter  Door does look huge but maybe is it was scaled down a bit it may work. |

I've always found TT to small.
edit. Replace TT with N. Model trains are not my forte. Sorry.

For people interested in making an underdweller force Khurasan's "Chuke" line could be used for infantry. They're short, hooded figures with what look to be carbines. They also have crewed weapons like mortars, machine guns and tube launchers, a giant beetle/flea thing towing an artillery piece (too contemporary for my taste, but the bug could be useful) and a tunneling drill.
I'd link directly, but they're closed for the holidays. Once their up and running you can go here (http://khurasanminiatures.tripod.com) and find the Chuke tab. IIRC it's under sci-fi.

Good idea I have added it to the sticky |

I'll dig up some listing I had on buildings etc. I know we're in the 21st century, but I actually take the time to copy most electroic catalogs into notebooks as well as all my notes, etc. before posting to forum. So, I still have almost all the various scenarios, weapons, terrain, ideas posted on the old AD site. BTW anyone seen billf or primulas or hardlec from the AD site?? It would be helpful for those who changed their 'handle' from AD to list the change on some post so we can reconnect  |

ok for starters at 00 gauge 4mm = 1 foot, furthermore the buildings have doors like 2" in height. Ok perhaps not much good but they are free to download at least I suggested that AQ scale (18mm man) is 3mm =1 foot. 15mm = 1:110 scale exactly, 18mm = about 1:92, HO = 1:87, most Airfix HAT, 1/72 scale are 22mm by comparsion. Missing hardlec as he really had a great knack for working this kind of thing - is his '15mm' scale. BTW 16.5mm = 1:100 scale exactly. Have a look at achesoncrreations.com for some nice 15mm/20mm trenches and terrain. And foxminiatures.com for some really great victorian period Ironclads (large 28mm - I use for large non-Goliath battle tanks) |

madmorgan, are you sure about foxminiatures.com?
It takes you to the Fox Miniatures page advertising the Tom Meier 1/48 WW II stuff that I've been waiting almost a decade for(greens done, but never produced).
Perhaps you meant another Fox Miniatures?
