Hi

Unfortunately don't get enough wargames in myself. Local club costs too much to get there, especially with subs, etc. (Still manage to roleplay 1/week, though).

Have had large GW 'Epic' scale armies for about 17 years, Battletech for slightly less. Anything less than a regimental size game and Titans can become a liability, so you really need a 6'x4' table. Battletech much less so because it is a skirmish game.

The Baneblade is a 'Super Heavy' tank in Imperial Guard forces, about the size of some smaller scout titans. Others include Stormhammer, Stormblade, etc.

Myself, got about 6 Titans & 19 Super Hvy Tanks for Imperial Guard, 7 Titans & 33 Super Hvy Tanks for Eldar. Plus about 160 mechs (Inner Sphere & Clan mix) for Battletech.

As for converting to 28mm - my boss (when I worked for GW) had a Reaver Titan, company (3) of Stormhammers, and a company (10) of Leman Russ tanks. He used to go to US and use them in large games in some sports hall there.

Cheers
