[15mm grav vehicles] Is it me or...

[G. K. Zhukov]

...isn't this the nicest Intrepid/Trepida-proxy in 15mm scale ever?

Has the shape of the Intrepid yes. Even the gun has the same basic shape.

I'm Glad I wasn't the only one to think that....

Great looking minis but aren't they rather pricey? I mean, $16US for a single 15mm tank? Yeesh!

It's in the realm of possibility, or still no where near what GW wants for a single model.

Mark from DH updated his blog with some new comparative shots between the new TopGun Intrepid-proxies and Ground Zero Games' former-best-thing-in-15mm-grav-tanks.

From those pics I would say the medium grav tank is the way to go... but the heavy grav tank could be used for thst Norris TL15 grav tank (aka Trepida III) which GDW included in their Regency Combat Vehicle Guide (TNE). :wink:

Here's a platoon of Topgun Marketing 15mm Grav Tanks, superbly painted by Richard Meaden, who did a very nice job of creating a unique camo. scheme, numbering system, and unit badge for these ultra-high tech vehicles:

These are the Type 9 Light Grav Tanks with the smooth-hulled finish, but they can also serve as Medium Grav Tanks, with short-barreled weapons, if you prefer.

Check the links for some more great photos of these, from different angles, as well as some unpainted vehicles with the AADS, or Active Armor Defense System, which is an automated vehicle self-protection system of the future.

We think they fit the bill for ultra-high tech Grav Armored vehicles, when nothing but the best will do to support your planetary assaults, or armored thrusts, halfway around the globe.

I really like the Ground Zero Games High Tech Grav Tank better. It just has a more "Third Imperium" feel to me. The Advanced Grav Tank has the look I think of for Zhodani, too.
