Gruntz 15mm : Terran Scout Mechs

I realized that the vast majority of my mechs are either medium or heavier. So I decided to remedy that with some fast scout mechs armed with specialist heavy lasers and weak armor making them even faster. Hard as hell to hit but if you do connect they are in deep kimchi.

Gruntz 15mm : Alien menace recycled

Well I decided I needed some generic alien menace models for scenarios and went digging through my extensive cast off clip collection (say that three times real fast). These are the alien nastys I came up with from some long lost Heroclix set.

I figure I will use the ground based ones as heavy grunt specialists and the flying ones as well grav specialists. As you can see they are a good size for 15mm alien baddies.

Escape pods : recycled materials

So I thought I would make some escape pod objective markers for my Gruntz 15mm obsession. Just need to slap some paint on them.

Blue caps are from strawberry milk bottles, turbine things are from baby bottles or formula, I have no idea. Wooden disks and a wooden mushroom thingy from he local craft store and voila.

Gruntz 15mm : Dune Rats

I wanted to do a Dune / Desert Rats mashup army and this is what I came up with. It took me about a year of hunting to find the various parts and put them together. The paint is simple and meant to get them on the table top and not to win any awards.
 
Got three great worms ( the are Bones Giant Worms) not sure what stats I'm going to use since I rarely use monsters in my games but it will be fun trying to figure out the right stats.
 
Each squad is six man strong and has a missile and a SAW plus ride in an open topped land rover.
 
I have two scout units of two sniper teams each who use a small FAV as their ride. The dune buggy is un armed but gives the snipers a way to quickly shift position.
 
The platoon has two mortar sections mounted in more heavily armed rovers which boast a small Gatling each to act as mobile fire points once the mortars are in position.
 
Mua'Dib along with Gurney Haleck and Stilgar form the three man command team and ride in a dune buggy FAV.
