Hi Everyone
I am a Warmaster player. I have a large Undead army (3000pts), a growing Empire army (2000pts) and am about to start a High Elf army(1-2000pts).
My figures are largely Games Workshop originals although I am padding out my armies with other manufacturers.
I am also about to be a Warband (Pendraken) player and I have a starter Undead pack and a starter Barbarian pack.
I hope to get sabots so I can use my Warmaster armies with the Warband rules and conversely my Warband armies with Warmaster. Warband bases are nominally 100 x 50 mm so sabots are an easy way to use Warmaster figures without rebasing.
I expect that some figures sizes will make that a bit awkward. For example the Warband Barbarian army has Bison Riders. They are big figures. You cannot get more than two of them onto a Warmaster 40 x 20 mm base. Therefore a Warband sabot base will only have 6(8) figures on it.
I can get all 12 bison riders onto a Warband 100 x 50 mm base if I don't use sabots.
The question is what Warmaster army would have a unit like Bison Riders in it so it is in my interest to base them Warmaster style or will I just base them Warband style.
I expect that some of my figures will only be used for Warband such as Command or Magic Users as these are quite differently portrayed in the two rulesets.
Apologies for the length of this post.
