Posted on 15 June 2011 at 14:22:41 GMT How do most of you gents handle this?
Do you put support units on the same sized base as standard infantry? From a frontage standpoint it seems like that would be an oversized base for HMG or mortar teams.
I am using FoW small sized bases for vehicles and infantry, and was considering 20mm squares for support units, but i don't know if this could somehow cause gameplay issues, since I haven't played a round yet. |

Posted on 15 June 2011 at 15:18:02 GMT I use the FoW bases, putting infantry long edge forward & sp wpns short edge forward. It has the added benefit of distinguishing what's what easily. |

Posted on 15 June 2011 at 17:11:32 GMT Must admit I use 1 size of base for foot, 30x20, means I dont have to get two sets of infantry. \weapons get the right ones on em.

Posted on 16 June 2011 at 06:56:00 GMT I use 20x30 or 30x20 for platoon-sized units and 20x20 for anything smaller (so support units, FAOs and FACs mainly). |

Posted on 16 June 2011 at 14:42:09 GMT On a related note, a support stand counts the same as an infantry stand for riding in transports, right? |

Posted on 16 June 2011 at 18:57:58 GMT Right, but it seems you are trying to tell us that it should count double?  |

Posted on 17 June 2011 at 09:55:07 GMT With my 6mm GHQ russians I base infantry on 30x20mm, support on 20x20mm or 30x20mm depending on miniatures. |
