True, but in all the games ive played, i dont think ive ever used them in anything other than a battleline, but a good point, if i were to run an ambush of off table reserves marching to the front, it would be useful.
Lovely work mate. Camp looks brilliant. As for rebasing, I think I’d keep the bill and bow separate for flexibility, plus other rules. Maybe just make movement trays. That should help protect the bill a bit. Have you thought about over basing the old ones. Scrape off what you can then over base with your new method.? Maybe try a base to see.?
I agree with leont66 comment about using movement bases. I use them for my 10mm acw armies. I can also re-use them in games using my future 10mm ECW infantry.
Very nice army you have there! I do my Hail Caesar armies on 3 60mm bases to a unit as well. I think it looks good and 180mm frontage is a good compromise between good looking and working reasonably well on the size of table top most of us have to play on.
Based my ancient Indian units on single bases which are good for To the Strongest, certainly recommend that approach. Great vid, I feel the need to tip you!
Wry nice. I am working through 6mm WotR #IBLAMEMARTIN. I am basing mine as singe base units on BigRedBats 10cm frontage bases. I really do like the affect but yours look great too. Rebasing would be a massive pain but the look is good.
Very nice. I would be tempted to stay with the basing you have. It is very flexible ….. for life after Hail caesar et al and should be fairly proof against warping. Also, it is quite hard to rebase 6mm without causing casualties along the way. I have WotR forces and have been using Sword & Spear, followed more recently by Billhooks ….. but you post has me going to HC II book, to have a good look at them … thanks!
I stick to multiple bases for columns marching but that is less relevant for ancients/medievals - diorama basing does look good but OCD keeps me from that so 50/50
The miniatures look really good, well done! As to basing I would be inclined to leave them on the existing bases so you can easily use them with other rules should you decide to try something else at some point.
looks great , love the camp ! :) can i ask what size are the bases youre using now ? ... and would they be same if you used 28mm ? ...for what its worth i like the flexibility !
WotR is one of the many items on my to do list. I'm currently weighing up which direction to take for my first venture into 6mm since the days of Epic (think Epic was 6mm). Your army looks fantastic. How do you find the rule set you've selected?
Your probably correct, the more recent bases are in kind of clumps, many of my older ones are more regimented. It's hard to judge really as we simply don't know exactly how they formed up. Cheers for watching.
