Some of these already exist or can be easily proxied. Look for the Epic 40k IG sprue on ebay. Rare, but Ive bought a couple over the years. On that there is a Trooper with radio (spotter anyone?) and a Psyker. For the combat engineers I would either use some of the excellent Dark Realm miniatures (Standard infantry look the part to me and the command pack comes with an engineer I noticed) or seige infantry. A bridging vehicle is pretty straight forward too I'd warrant. To get some ideas search google for Hobarts Funnies (ww2 british AVRE vehicles). A really nice conversion could be done using a Ragnarok tank hull with a bridge at the front and winch gear on the top of the vehicle. Vindicare assassin. Hmm. Do a search- I know someone (Vermis?) did some excellent 6mm sculpts using the marine scout as teh basis.. edit: Ahah, I think it was lex Edit (the second) and here is the IG sprue CHeck the fourth row down, 1st and second minis from the right for Psyker and Spotter. |

I believe GZG has conversion bits for turning vehicle chassis' into engineering type vehicles and vehicle launched brigding systems. Yep, here it is.... http://www.gtns.co.uk/store1....next=40 Stock # DSM-147 |

This is all I could dig up. They're on 6mm Sci-Fi wargames yahoo group so you need to be a member to view. Bridgelayer Turns out Brigade models might be of some help as well. American bridgelayer Unfortunately GZG seems to think that their rather low resolution PDF catalogue serves as a picture repository for their older figs. Unfortunately that code wasn't in existence when the catalog was made. I'll stop before I go on a mini-rant. |

For 3) there is the neat spotter from the DRM Sniper Teams. You can also use the originalk sprue IG gunner and put him in a foxhole:

Yeah. Both EW and DRM have excellent spotter models Both also have decent sniper models that could be used as Vindicares if you're not too fuzzy about exact miniature likeness. |
