You were asked – TMP link Imagine that you're basing up figures for a game system that recommends X number of figures per base. You realize you will end up with X minus 1 figures – that is, not enough figures to complete the last base. What are you most likely to do? 28% said "make a base with fewer figures than recommended"
23% said "order another figure(s)"
10% said "throw the excess figures in the spares box" |

In our DBA campaign, i always need some horde elements, because we level unequal battles by giving the one with fewer elemenst some hordes. Throw together some leftover minioatures of different armies and you get a horde element. For my napoleonic wargaming, i would base leftover figures (28mm) as singles. You often need some single miniatures as markers, objectives, couriers or pure decoration. |
