There are so many options here that it can be staggering.

If you are into Snowpiercer and a Post-apoc style setting here are some suggestions to review and consider:

1. This is Not a Test- Good campaign system and small scale skirmish game.

2. Nuclear Renaissance- Similar to This is Not a Test

3. Fallout: wasteland Warfare- Never played.

4. Last Days: Zombie Apocalypse- Specific to Zombie Apoc but could be changed up. Again campaign oriented and mini-agnostic.

5. Scrappers- Also mini-agnostic. The setting is a bit more far future than 80's style post-apoc.

6. Across the Dead Earth- The setting is Britain, and is another Z base apocalypse rather than Nukes.

7. Gaslands- This one is a car combat game so the miniatures are Hot Wheels and Matchbox cars instead of people and Zeds.

If you are just interested in a small-scale skirmish game that is very different from 40K/GW you may want to think about....

-In Her Majesties Name- Osprey/Ministry of Gentlemanly Warfare
-Strange Aeons- Uncle Mike Publishing
-Dracula's America- Osprey
-Pulp Alley- Pulp Alley Publishing
-Frostgrave/Ghost Archipelago- Osprey
-Batman Miniature Game- Knight Models
-Bushido
-Arena Rex (or various Gladiator Games)
-Rogue Planet

These are all very different from GW style games.

Edit: Oh yeah, I am completely biased, but I think Rampant Stars and Rampant Sun are pretty cool too!

Edit Edit: I forgot to add Blasters and Bulkheads and Mutants and Death Rays to the list.......

By the same author Five Parsecs From Home but for sci-fi. Think Firefly or other folks living on the fringe of society, sometimes law abiding, sometimes not.

Using the Song of Blades and Heroes system, Deep Wars is underesea skirmishing.

Related I think there is a unit vs. Unit skirmish game similar called Clash on the Fringe as well.

Edit: Let us know what you try and find out!

Oh, I think they are all by Nordic Weasel but am not 100% on it.
