FIW and Black Powder

[joroas]

So, having just visited Eastern Canada and played an 1812 game at Dave Bickley's, I had a hankering to do this for Black Powder.  However, fate intervened in my buying, on impulse, 4 regiments each side and a gun for the FIW.  I already have enough unpainted figures from North star for M&T. So well on my way to two armies.

I am unsure of basing, my instinct is to base them on pennies and use the Warbases regular and irregular sabot bases, that way I am not tied to one specific base.

How have others done this?

My initial basing for AWI was four figures to a 40mm square, with occasionally three or two for the lighter battalions.

I know think I'm going to base everything on pennies and use my sabot bases for coherency

That's kind of my current thought, then they can be used for skirmish as well.
