"Sir! We have confirmation that our detachments heavy equipment has now arrived in system."

"Excellent, begin sweeping the outlying areas, it's important that these local scum understand that the fist of the Empire is hovering above their obstinate heads. "

 

 

More reveals of the 15mm star wars force I have been secretly building up. It's funny how many secret things happen in this fictional universe. 



The heavy work of figering out what minis to use was mined from the internets by diligent searchs. Turns out the there were some micro machine star wards lines that are pretty close to 1:100. 


The AT AT is obviously undersized.......but does it really need to be any bigger for a game? I don't seem myself using it as an actual unit as opposed to facing background and/or objective. 








The AT ST are much more 'in line' scale wise. I have 3 of these bad boys. Considering I only have 30 troopers and a mere 3 support weapons it's a good thing too.

  1. Love the AT-AT Dave! I have one too and they are great models.
    I just bought a 1:100 scale AT AT as well, for no real reason (I pretend that the smaller one is only good for 1:144 scale and I only need to get a new army of Storm Troopers and it will all be sensible )

    1. Doesn't everyone need a new army of stormtroopers? The new order did it and.... uh..... good things happened?

  2. Insignificant Rebellion..... soon to be chewed up and spat out by those brave troopers in white and their wondrous war machines!

    1. The rebellion certainly gets more air time than they deserve. They are but gnats, no chance of them affecting any of our serious war machines. There's better things to talk about, like the stock prices of major industrial defense suppliers....

    1. I didn't do anything but base the ATSTs. They came a bit grubbied up. I think the guns could benefit from a bit of touch ups but otherwise they do look pretty solid.
