Does anyone have the actual dimension of the real imperium ageis line?
I'd like to do some aegis line for my eldar too and you guys gave me some great idea.. or should I say I shall copy and modify a bit your idea lol.
But I would like to respect the real aegis line dimension.

Actually I just really need the length of the thing.. the height is somewhat not so critical..
But the length is much more important.

Something else that is effective and CHEAP, use clear plastic spoons. Cut the handle off the spoon, attach it to a cut in half 25mm base for the emitter and go from there.

Looking for info on:
- Aegis Defence line:

Tall parts are 1.5", low parts 1" high.
The short section is 2" wide, the long section about 5.25"
On the long section, the middle part is 1" further back than the two tall parts.
The "mail slot" is 1.25" from the ground.

The mounting of the quad-gun is exactly as high a tall piece of the wall, the gun itself is entirely above the wall.

Yea I need one of these for my tournament Eldar, and theres no way In hell im using the steel/concrete stock gak.

For the gun Im going to use a metal walker + nightspinner gun bits.

For the actual wall Im going to do circular bases probably...

Flinty, that looks really cool I love the Idea!
Mars 2024, I would pay you like 100$ for one of those , it looks so good!
Angel that looks sick man, really nice job!

Hey, Smitty, haven't seen your batreps for a while. How you been? I would gladly let you pay me $100 for a set of them, but I need to correct/improve on them. I think I'm going to try to build a gun around the vyper gunner (since I'm going to use the hull for a flyer scratchbuild).

Now I just need to cobble together the time to get onto all my projects.

So I broke out a new set of prototypes this week. They're plasticard with sculpting putty on one face (I still need to putty the back pieces). I've also got to rethink the small sections. I like them better in the 2D, but they're not working for me when I cut them out and try to put them together. Hmm.

Anyway, here's a pic of the new prototype ADL and a Quad-gun I whipped together. Gonna play tonight, so I'll see what my local guys think.



What do you guys think?

A guy from my local shop made this one.

Wow, that (and the stuff on the link) looks really great. I think the guy from your local shop is here on Dakka. I've seen this wall before...

@ Flinty/mars2024, really nice ideas dudes, might well look at making a few myself.
Great work.

I've seen his stuff - I'm in awe. He's pretty much got everything Forgeworld makes as well. Re: Heavies, Superheavies, etc. Its painted really well, and he's a fun guy to game against.

Loving the non-Imperial terrain there!

Would these be of any use to you as well?

I think you may be mistaken (the link you provided doesn't make the claim he made them that I saw); I doubt he made those. A few of us bought this exact ADL from a guy in England.

Attached is a thread we made in regards to it. We received it within 2 weeks of buying them off of ebay.

My bad, I know he casts a lot of his own stuff so I only assumed.

No issues. The link also includes the ebay link to buy those Eldar ADL. IIRC, it cost me under 25 dollars including shipping.
