TOPIC: FKOE Basing Question |
Standard User Posts: 96 Brad1971 20th Dec 2022 12:58:28 So in addition to Polemos whenever that gets out for 7 years war I really enjoy playing For King or Emperous by First Command Wargames. However the bases are usually for 10mm figures on 40mm wide bases. I was looking at the strips and it seems to me that 2 strips is a bit to wide for a 40mm base. Do you guys fit 2 strips side by side on a 40mm base and I am just missing something? I like the idea of 40mm wide bases but I guess I can just play the game with 60mm wide bases and then use it for polemos as well when it comes out. I guess I just ansswered my own question. But I have seen people talk about 40mm wide bases so my question is do you cut figures off the strips or just use 4 figures wide? |
I have FKoE and 10mm armies, but my basing is the 25mm square, so I just use two bases per unit. Re 6mm Baccus figures, have you considered using the type of sprue clippers Baccus sells specifically for separating figures from their strips. I have found that they work perfectly well for separating Baccus sprues. It is one of the reasons I changed to Baccus from Irregular, as separaring those thick Irregular bases is very difficult. Sprue clippers make the Baccus figures far more versatile. A little goes a long way |
