I have a lot of AT-34, Battletech Toys, WWII Vehicles and Mini’s from other games like Attack bike with figures that are defiantly not SM’s. I was wondering about using them a proxies. I know that a lot of the AT-34 Minis work good for Sentinels and SM Dreadnaughts.

The Attack Bikes with a Mini-Gun I was thinking as Sentinels
My Mad Dog [Vulture] as a Warhound
My Stug for a Destroyer Tank Hunter
Sturmpanzer IV ''Brummbär'' For my Thunderer Siege tank
Rifleman [Radar X] for a Hydra Flack Rank
AT-43 Red Blok Odin O-1 for a baslalisk

No! Proxies are bad!

If you do not spend ANY money on GW models and use nothing but proxies they will send in the lawsuite kill teams and shut you down!!! (Just like Vassal40k)

lol just kidding...

Sounds cool!

Ihave 3 Armies
The Impieral Tigers [DA 13th Founding] 100% GW
Space Wolves [Since 1991] 60%-70% GW
DH/IG 30%-40% GW
I just have tons of this stuff floating around and thought it would be fun do use them with my DH/IG army.

It really depends on where and with whom you play your games. If you only play with your friends or at a relaxed club, then there likely won't be a problem, as long as you keep the proxies understandable - a model with a big gun should be used to represent a tank, and infantry should be used to represent infantry. Of course, these are just my suggestions - you may even want to play with just pieces of torn up paper.

Of course, if you play at a GW store, with a more strict club, or at many tournaments, then proxies will be frowned upon. Some may be chill with mixing in the occasional bit from other model ranges, but most do not like people using proxies.
