IIRC the half tiles are 25mm wide, what are the dimensions of the classic Epic square bases?
From memory the old epic bases were 20mm square.

Really glad to see vanguard come out with more epic minis!
I bought a guard army last year and put them together in the summer. I added green stuff camo cloaks on all my guys to fit my regimental theme.
I was really pleased with how they came out.
thinking of picking up another army so I can play armageddon with people who don't have their own armies.

Whoa the detail on those aircrew is amazing, they will go very well with my airship that I am working on.
I think that stuff may push me over the edge and finally make me place an order, like Alph said, I have found a use for my stimulus cheque, thanks Canada!

Read the post my friend ;-) I'll put the quote up (bold for emphasis):
Released today is the first set in a new range of Novan Elites in a variant armour design a theme I hope to expand on in the future as we develop the Defeat in Detail universe further. For now we have Novan Elites Affray squads. Note this first set contains carbine armed troopers and sergeant figures only, squad support weapons will follow hopefully before months end.
Those will cover stuff like flame throwers, microwave guns, and what not. Other stuff such as jumppack wearing troops, close combat troops, heavy support, etc will also be done. You can eventually also expect other more exotic variant as well as corpses and such.

Message from Vanguard Miniatures:
News flash,
The second batch of Affray has already been sold out, but a further batch is already inbound for later this week. I also have the main Regulars Siege infantry sets here to sort and bag they should be up in the next few days, as well as Skinners infantry leaders and more Centurion tanks.
Re-stocks are understandable slow at this time but stuff is trickling in and many items are on order. I apologies that so many items are out of stock but there's not much I can do about it I'm afraid, Covid has disrupted manufacture and supply.
I must thank you all for the many orders placed over these last few months really appreciated.
Cheers John
In the meantime, a small teaser of things to come:

A quick heads up - Vanguard have suspended further orders being placed for their cool toys so they can clear their back log. Quite understandable when you consider the current challenges. There is a post on the website if you want to read it, I am merely letting ya know.
Now if they could hurry up with their 3mm scale leviathan stalker and Zeus warships/ Helios battleship ...

Funny enough I asked the community for which other universes they use VGM models. Rather than universes people mentioned various game systems, some that were mentioned:
- Dominion (Vanguard's own game system)
- 40k Apocalypse
- Star Breach
- Horizon Wars
- Polyversal
- BattleTech
- OGRE
- Xenia's Rampant (based on the very fun Dragon Rampant)
- Futurewar Commander
- Rogue Planet
