I know some of you have tried this and I believe I read somewhere on this forum that Robin might have some rules in the works to let Gruntz handle more vehicles.
What I would like to do is play a Votoms/robotech type game with about 15 to 35 mechs a side on a 3'x3' board.
So, any suggestions?

6mm was my main scale for gaming sci-fi before I started to get into 15mm in about 2000, so I would certainly like to have a crack at it. I think a lot of the core rules would remain the same but damage would be handled differently to handle more vehicles and more rapid destruction. I would also want to bring in more command control "tactical" functions and combined operations where multiple units could offer boosts and benefits when acting together. But at the moment it is all about getting the current rules updated and into print. However I can't see why you can't use them for 6mm now for small battles. I think you could actually get away with just using CM's rather than inches. Base the Gruntz on a single hex sized base and mark damage off on the cards, rather than removing individual models.

Well, then maybe some Fantasy Rules for Gruntz in the future?
BTW, 6mm rules would be awesome. I have lots of 6mm rotting away with nothing to use them in.
