The quads are nice and bulky enough for GW minis, so what's stopping you?

Looks pretty great. Even though 1/48 people are considerably taller than 28mm, I've found that the width and bulk of most 28mm figs makes them fit in really well with 1/48 vehicles. I'd love to see if anyone uses these in a 28mm gaming setting.

As a general example, here's a driver made from GW parts in a 1/48 truck

I just recently bought several Urban Wars junkers quads (and they're pricey, due to being metal :-/) or I might've been all over these.

Somewhere in south-central England.

Airfix now have a nice selection of modern British army vehicles in 1/48 scale that could work well for IG armies.

I'm writing a load of fiction. My latest story starts here... This is the index of all the stories...

We're not very big on official rules. Rules lead to people looking for loopholes. What's here is about it.

Yeah I have have one of their Supercat jackals for that reason but it may get repurposed if I ever do anything orky.

It's a great line and the Quads look like a good addition and ideally suited to Ash Wastes gangs!

Ooh, I'll have to have my FLGS buy in a box of these for some zombie games. The Airfix modern British kits are great to work with, and as for the scale, work quite nicely alongside 28mm models (in fact I have an Airfix Landrover in my Fallout thread).

Eureka Miniatures has a nice batch of Afghan National Police that could go well with the vehicles: http://eurekamin.com.au/news.php?newsid=EFluFEVFZuaPokBadY



While the minis are topnotch, the shipping is less than great unless you are a native however.
