Multibased infantry question
« on: January 29, 2013, 03:32:46 AM »
So, I'm debating whether to multibase or not, and I'm wondering how much the exact breakdown of bases matters? I realize there are multibased stats in the unit entries with guidelines on how to base a unit, but sometimes the number of figures on a base seems unwieldy.

For an example a British Para Squad is supposed to be a Bren team base of three figures and a Rifle team base of seven figures.

Is there any negative impact to splitting up the Rifle team base into two bases (one of 4 and one of 3)?

What about changing the split of fire teams so that they are more equal, and have the squad broken down to two bases of five? Some of the example forces in the main rule book appear to be broken down like this.

The proposed breakdown mirror the historical squad organisation.
If you do not like the split simply change it.

In my games we had no negative effects with other splits.

Thank you. I figured it wouldn't make a huge difference with other splits, but wanted to be sure.
