Medieval English - posted by Frank LeSquirrel, 2 October 2020

Hiya guys, I live in England and play DBMM. But I’ve based my guys on 80mm fronts. Noticed you managed to get yours on 60mm, by the looks of it.

We use 60mm bases in NZ but often deeper than the rules state to fit the newer figures. I cut mine from MDF by hand so no two of mine are the same. Artisan bases

If no one had any armies and we were all starting from scratch, I think 80mm would be great. So much more practical and potentially scenic.
But alas we aren’t starting from scratch. So we use those quirky base sizes from the 1970s.

  Yeah I can see that would be where most people are. I do tend to collect both sides, so I rebased everything to 80mm fronts OR 2 x 40mm, so they are slightly more flexible with other rule sets......
