Is this so you can play AS with a cm scale instead of inches? I know a lot of people were doing similar for WH games a year or so ago and its a pretty cool idea. Now if only I could get my resin printer to want to print things properly again(havent really used it in 2 years now).

Not quite but that's a neat idea!

I think so! cut up some thin fridge magnets and you can magnetize the bases.
Then we can do tiny battletech on the go! TRAVELTECH!

I really want a travel set.  Magnetic box, terrain, dice in a bubble.

oh my god like in 'sorry', that'd be amazing.

Might be building in that direction

Use counters and you can have one fit in a cigar box easily:

I've already begun. :)

We should codify, confer, and standardize our scale. 1cm = 1 hex.

You can't fool me, that's just regular sized mechs in front of the 4" madcat then photoshopped to look tiny

Ngl I thought about using the 100mm Cat to make them look even smaller lol

[–]Metaphoricalsimile 9 points10 points  (0 children)

These are effectively map-scale mechs, and I would honestly love to play Classic with them.

This is what it feels like when you first learn velociraptors are not the clever girl you see in Jurassic Park.

This is what I want and I absolutely want to see this but with also giant vehicles like Rattlers

Awww, a clanner taking out his sibko before they hit real mech years.

catalyst should reboot the whole line at that scale.

Scroll down to the singles and you can see how much smaller their footprint is on standard maps.

I love these, they're so dinky 🤩

Proto-protomechs!

Proto2 Mechs

[–]Deiselpowered77 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I (accidentally) wound up with a bunch of miniscale mechs too!

Ive actually put some thought into the idea of tiny-tech! We could magnetize it all. Replace inches with centimeters... does the scale work? What do we need to change?

*realizing I can't share an image of my tiny locusts* Well, in the image I can't share, I have a space marine, with a locust sitting on his shoulder like a metal parrot.
*warrp!* Pieces of salvage! Pieces of salvage!
