Title: MDF bases for AWI
Post by: Nav on 15 June 2012, 10:33:21 PM
which size bases from MDF square/rectangular range would be good for AWI basing 15x20 or 20x20. Thank you

From a sales side, lot's of folk using 20x20's at the moment, and also quite a few going for 30x20's as well.

We are all using the 40x20 for AWI infantry basing on this side of the pond down in Texas  8)

It is best to see what your local gamers are using so you can battle each other  ;)

20x20 seems to be the most flexible basing size - will let you play BRitish Grenadier and Black Powder. Not sure about Maurice though

Anything 'squarish' [direct quote from 'Maurice'] will be fine  :)

Yep. Consult your prospective opponents. If you don't have opponents in mind then I would go for 20 x 20 as the most flexible arrangement formation-wise.

As Hertsblue says check out the opposition.  Personally I use 30x30 for the Washington`s Army rules.

Im more of just thinking about displaying them so thats a pretty good size.
