i'm thinking of starting FOW and i will be using peter pig figures.
will the PP figs fit the FOW bases? what i mean is, i know the PP infantry have different style bases(rectangles and squares).

The PP figures will fit the bases.

The newer Battlefront bases have circular 'holes' for the figures stands, the PP models may not fit into these but then again not all the Battlefront models do either ;)

The older Battlefront bases are just plain with no 'hole' any figures will fit on them.

There are also a number of the laser cut base companies that make MDF bases in the same size as Battlefront.

just trim the figures base I you need too but PP don't have big bases so you should be ok

If you want to spend a little money Kerr and King make a set of resin bases for FoW designed for Peter Pig figures, i.e. with rectangular slots for the models. They make nice looking stuff. kerrandking.co.uk

The scenic FOW bases are pretty pricey IMO, unless you are doing a dedicated urban warfare army I can't see the need for them.

Heck, to me ANY scenic bases are too expensive but I still buy them for certain games if I like their look (such as the ones I got for all my Malifaux stuff). But a lot of people must buy them because so many manufacturers make the darn things!
