I just looked at some Brigade Models 1/300 vehicles -
some of them would be really nice as buggys or similar size vehicles for Epic.. as an example take this one: buggie this might be a good land speeder or just generel skimmer: speeder and what about this as a Vulture: vulture
But was I was really thinking was if anybody out there have actually experiemented with alternat?ve infantry figures?
Practically you be able to use anything right? - I know Heroics and Ros make some preatorians that I'd really like to buy.. Only thing keeping me from doing it is that it's impossible to make out the size of the, let alone how they go with other figs.
Have YOU used alternative figs and do you know somethign I dont?!?!?

The H&R minis are the correct size, but a little thinner than GW minis. They do, however, work well.

Hi!
I had those minis. I didnt like them becuase they were to small compared to the rest of the epic minis.
Then again, scale in epic is so all over the place that it may not matter to you.

Hi Guys,
I'm the 6mm sci-fi proxy king. I love variety and have a ton of minis.
It's hard to say what my favorites are.
Shalom, Maksim-Smelchak.

Primach,
Do you have any side by side shots If you still have the minis.
There are also the Renegade Legion minis which I consider some of the best sci-fi armor ever made.
PFC still makes the minis.
These would be excellent for Tau or Eldar

They got some fighters and stuff that may be suitable for epic

Great looking Ork AFVs! Thanks! ?
If I needed more Orksez those would be great!
As far as 6mm Infantry, GZG makes a good range!

The first pic in your last post looks IMO more of a Squat vehicle. At least if the turret is replaced with something bigger and more angular.
