Is there any non historical miniature wargame that doesn't use anglo (big pauldrons, skullz, spikes, warhammer proportions a.k.a. heroic scale) or animu (self explanatory) aesthetics?

Infinity ?

Is that guardsman really tall, or that space marine a manlet?

Look at the minis, now look at any generic shitty space themed anime (which leaves you with everything but Cowboy Beebop)
>YFW, ohshit.jpg its almost like they were ripped straight from it
Anon, the Tau have grittier models than all of Infinity, please stop
>>
>>49146206
All I see is operators operating operationally and some powersuits. Doesn't look very anime.

Hell, AoS is more anime than Infinity for what its worth.

>>
>>49146229
Those guys don't look operator at all, all I see are dipshits running around with ludicrously sized swords with hair flowing "heroically in the wind" Even their Not US-Army line looks like a manga-lite bastardization of bolt-action
Not everyone will like every kind of model sculpt/ setting, and this guy specifically said he didn't want "animu" there is a large group of people who believe it looks "animu-esque" (anon from >>49146088 and I included) and as such he should be forewarned.
>>
>>49146044
There's an alternative war games general in the catalog - ask there.
>>
>>49146229
What's an operator?

>>49146264
You can like pulp sci-fi, but all the material is quite old as it was written in the 20s and 30s,

>or animu (self explanatory) aesthetics

The only thing separating Chink cartoons from the rest of the world is the place it is from.
No "anime aesthetics" really exist.

Warzone's scaled at 35mm true scale, neither is it plastered with skulls and spikes.

You have to have some seriously dulled senses to think this is true.

Mecha anime alone proves you wrong.

Guardsmen is really tall.

>Oversized weapons are not a staple of western SCI-FI.

You're not only absolutely dull in anime topics, you're also piss-poor at anything SCI-FI.
Seriously, what are you even doing here?
I'd say jerking it to MtG cards but those would be ultra weeaboo for you as well going by how you circled a miniature imitating Rambo.

You're fresh off /b/, aren't you?
>>
>>49146044
>anglo

What the hell gave you the idea this is what all Anglo miniatures are like? And the VAST majority of sci-fi miniatures do not have big pauldrons and skulls.

This thread gave me cancer, die in a fire OP you supreme faggot.

>>49146358
That's caledonia the Scott's


Americans and Ruskis are operator
>>
>>49146658
US refers to the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA in common usage, ergo the "not-United States of AMERICA" but I guess you wouldn't realize that from getting triggered over the idea someone has slightly different views regarding your game.
>>49146695
>BFG
Gothic is literally in the name, it is a feature rarely used in modern media, so no that's hardly weeaboo
>>49146711
Jerking to MtG Cards isn't weeaboo, it's sad
What modern western Sci-Fi has "Oversized Weapons?" The major name that pops up is 40k and that is over 30 years old, which predates the pathetic anime craze.....
>>
>>49147073
>don't know what BFG stands for outside of GW
40k kids, I swear...
>>
>>49147112
What The Big Friendly Giant by Rohld Dahl, my apologies if you mentioned a childrens book where people routinely talk about traditional games.....
>>
>>49146092
Plastic guardsmen are well known to be oversized, and nearly every marine model is squatting. If you compare a marine (preferably one of the models that's actually standing straight) with Forgeworld's resin guardsmen, or the older metal guardsmen, the marine looks about as tall as they should compared to a regular humans.

This, incidentally, is the problem with "truescale" marines. Converting marines from terminator bits to make them bigger in relation to guardsmen makes them just look ridiculously out of scale with everything else, especially the vehicles which are already on the small side.
>>

There are some that use both?

>Infinity the game (also known as Infinity: A Skirmish Game) is a tabletop miniature wargame with 28mm scale metal miniatures that simulates combat and special operations in a Science fiction environment created by Gutier Lusquiños of Corvus Belli. The games aesthetics are largely inspired by Manga, particularly the work of Masamune Shirow.
