Hey Peanut, I don't have my book with me. But I believe the basing per figure is the same. Ranking is what determines how you may want to base your figs.

If it is like Medieval Tactica, the single figure basing works out to WRG standards for multiples… I didn't even understand that. Let me splain. Say you are doing 15mm gaming. WRG has 4 figures on a 40mm front. That is true for most heavy infantry. That would mean 10mm per figure. Base them in multiples as you like. As D6 Junkie says, the games mechanics is based on ranks of figures, not elements of figures. So even basing them singularly, you would do fine. Heavies are 10mm Medium/light are about 13mm Skirmishers are 20mm Heavy Medium Cavalry are 13mm Light cavalry are 20mm John

I and my friends based our figures DBA ,or WRG. I based my Repulican Romans 4 to a stand, but my buddy Greg did his 3 per stand same frontage. Mike Adams P.S. Happy New Year
