What size are your sabot bases? I'm enjoying Altar of Freedom as well and I have my figures mounted on 60x30mm bases.

They're 80mm x 40mm.  There's three 25mm bases in each sabot.

I've never come across Altar of Freedom. Who produces them?

They're credited  Greg Wagman and paper copies are distributed by Iron Ivan Games.  Pdfs are available from the website http://www.6mmacw.com/

Wow that is a great site, now bookmarked. Thanks very much. This might at last encourage my erstwhile Union opponenbt to get his 6mm army painted at last.

6mm? You have to go with 10s  :)

To be honest, I used my 6mm figures to test the rules and liked them so much I decided to convert my 10mm ACW project to AoF.
The rules are very easy to grasp but offer enough subtlety to be challenging.

Must admit I do like my Baccus 6 mils. I also like the idea of using the 3mm cut out buildings and fighting Shiloh on a 4'x4'. A most inspiring website (I also have large 15mm armies for use with Longstreet and Regimental Fire and Fury. Got into ACW gaming in 1968 so my interest long predates 10mm figures; besides I have too many other 10mm projects in mind, eg.WW1).
