Hi z ... I did think on the Devilfish (& Hammer!) for AT-43 APC (& Type III's), but they seem to big? I'll bring one in and compare against some AT-43 models next time there's a game on.
I'd had a look for scales to MM ratio and found this ref site ... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_scale_model_sizes ... so I've a good idea what size models will be, but I'll most likely hack-up odds & bods to make something that's not physically too big for the battleground, depending on the scale of the models I buy. I'd like to get 1:72'ish, but 1:35 can be hacked up and glued together as little projects for my Tau transports. That's why I was going to use the ONi transport as a ref to the physical size of a model on the table as it holds 12 troopers.
That model looks like a GI Joe ship? Check out the web for all GI Joe's wacky models, their pretty good looking, just a tad big! ...
>>> G.I. Joe Cobra Gunship
... I'd looked at them as well, but like u said, too big ... Walts

Does it matter what size the model is ?
All measurements are from the base, so no big deal, and all LOS from the centre, so no problem again.
WH40K is different as i have read a lot of people measure from the end of the gun / missile.
And aye, looks like it is GI Joe.............. LOL.

Quote (zellak) Does it matter what size the model is?
I guess not, but it does add a touch of more realism if close to the mark? And everything is based on the center/base, so double guess not! 
Did we every agree on base sizes for transports? 80mm for (upto) 8 troop carriers and 130mm for anything bigger (12 troopers, etc) ... OR, do they even need bases, like the ONi vehicles? ... Walts

It does not matter what we agreed.
The Umpire must be petitioned (by PM) about anything outside the RAW (rules as written) and then input to be processed by the Umpire (via a thread).
(note ; maximum of one post per player.)
And then a decision to be made by the Umpire.
So by the RAW.
Camel and BTR-5 are Type 1
DK and Kraken are Type 2
Medium Enforcer has no base.
And awaiting a ruling on the Wyvern. (but prolly the only transport on Type 3 base.)Added (13-Mar-2012, 10:15 AM)
