Title: 15mm basing for skirmish AND larger?
Post by: agoodall on February 18, 2023, 03:14:43 AM

I have 15mm figures I was planning to use for skirmishes. Recently I thought I'd also like to use them for larger scale games (maybe something like Crossfire.

Is there a basing system that works for both, like a tray or something? Or is it best to just pick one type of basing scheme and use that?

I saw some 3d printed bases for trees where you can pull out the trees individually (I have a 3d printer), but I didn't see anything for 15mm.

Was just wondering if anyone had recommendations.

I base all my WWII 15mm individually (except for team weapons) on steel washers, and I use them with 3d-printed magnetic sabot bases for mass movement.
