Hi,

Just got the kindle version.

I currently have my infantry 6 to 25mm square base for Longstreet.

With 6 6mm ground scale in ADF what is the best size bases?

Thought about using the current base size but counting them a 3 figures per base. but wondering if using 3" frontage for a unit would be too much.

or I could use 15mm ramges?

Many Thanks

Rich.

Jump over to the Johnny Reb Yahoo group. Dean is answering lots of questions on ADF there:

If you were to use the 2 base per regiment option and count 6 figures (1 base) as 3, you would be right on scale.
If you go with the 3 base per regiment option, you would be somewhat out of scale, on the large side, but still perfectly playable.
