@oriskany : oh, most definitely silly in 40k. One definitely needs to switch of the brain at times.
That’s before you consider the speed at which these things are supposed to move in fiction. At least we got orbital drop troops now, so we don’t need impossibly sized jets delivering the troops to the field.
And as much as I like the aesthetics of some of the impossibly huge ones they’re not practical to use either, unless you want a bullet magnet (which has its uses).

I kind of noticed that in Bolt-Action as well. My precious trucks barely got to move a few centimeters.
It doesn’t stop me from adding them to my army because I like the models though.

Anyways …

I wonder if ‘Red Dawn’ ( https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0087985/ ) can be done with any of the rules mentioned so far.
