Use small bases eg 4 infantry or 1 vehicle or 1 gun and crew on 13mm by 20mm (widest forward for the infantry). Small weapons & crew on 17mm wide by 15mm deep. .75mm thick magnetic sheet underneath. These will store really tight and safely. To game, use a sabot under each base eg 25mm x 25mm for platoon per stand games or 3 or 4 of your stands on a sabot 50mm x 30mm for battalion level games. Really great system if you have limited storage space, a big collection or want flexibility to try different rule systems. PS remember my earlier tip of slow setting epoxy glue between legs (after painting) of all standing foot figures. Also glue a crewman against any spindly, weak barrell of ground mounted gun! |

The epoxy legs trick is a good idea, I may have to try that! |
