Title: SCW Command Bases for Blitzkrieg Commander
Post by: cfeicht on 07 October 2010, 12:37:50 PM

Hello All,

First time poster here.

I'm putting together several SCW armies and planning to use them with the Blitzkrieg Commander ruleset but need some advice on what types of command bases I need to design and what product codes to use for them.

If anyone has any suggestions, I would certainly appreciate them.

Thanks,

Christian

For each battlegroup you will need
1 CO usually  a 50x50 mm base
2-3 HQs 40x40 base
1-2 Forward observers 40 x 40 bases

What you have on the bases is up to you. My WWII command bases include ones with just infantry, ones with a few infantry and a jeep type  vehicle, or even just a tank. The SCW range seems to include some very nice command figures so you should have a good start there.
