Hello

BG33 :



I was thinking about making "double bases"... need time to paint...  :(

Yes i noticed that one. 34mm wide and 4 deep. Should be ok, but i really want to do it in a bigger scale. The uniforms are just fun to paint.


also, this site has all the measurements of the irregular blocks:

Wow, that's pretty cool Peter.  I kinda like the idea of having different bases for different formations, i.e., each unit has a base in line, column, and square.  There's only one base on the table at a time, and you just plunk down the one to represent their current formation.  Very interesting...

V/R,
Jack

Yes that would work!

bt i mainly use my 2mm for "2by2", wich assumes the unit to take the best formation autmaticaly, so it's not that big of a problem for me.

Also, for the BG33 piece, forgot to mention that i use 30X15 bases, and the BG33 is too big for that.

My 2mm stuff is on mostly 25x25, but all frontages are 25mm so I am constrained in the same way, but as I use them for BBB there's not too much of a problem.
