ezekiel09 Posted August 31, 2011 Share Posted August 31, 2011 So I know that Canis is on the 60mm base but what size are the regular guys supposed to be on? I have a few coming in from paulson games and they have bike bases with them but I am not sure if those are the correct size or not.

Jarl Kjaran Coldheart Posted August 31, 2011 Share Posted August 31, 2011 i use 60mm myself. WLK Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/237437-twc-base-size/#findComment-2863317 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wulfebane Posted August 31, 2011 Share Posted August 31, 2011 Either one (60mm or bike base) has become the standard. Anything under that is generally considered too small for a TWC (better suited for a fen. wolf). Until GW releases an actual TWC model, it's debatable which is accurate, though many will argue that since Canis is in fact the ONLY TWC model, then his base should be acknowledged as the standard...with which others will rebuttal, stating that Fangir is the largest known Thunderwolf, so his base would naturally need to accommodate. Also, fyi, there are several threads identical to this one. Should try searching the forums next time.

ezekiel09 Posted August 31, 2011 Author Share Posted August 31, 2011 Thanks for the replies. I did search for it and about 4 pages of results came up and was at work and didn't have time to sift through all of that.

Tsuro Posted September 1, 2011 Share Posted September 1, 2011 ...with which others will rebuttal, stating that Fangir is the largest known Thunderwolf, so his base would naturally need to accommodate. Lots of things are bigger or smaller without affecting base size - yet Marines, Guardsmen, Tau and Termagaunts all share the same base. Arjac is supposedly bigger than other Terminators, does he get a larger base as well?

Arjac is supposedly bigger than other Terminators, does he get a larger base as well? Tsuro I didn't say it was MY argument... just one example that I've seen come up often. I'm perfectly happy putting mine on 60mm and calling it a day. Terminators used to be on the smaller base. They're now on the 40mm base (likely, in part, due to the redesign). Take from that what you will. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/237437-twc-base-size/#findComment-2863635 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gop Posted September 1, 2011 Share Posted September 1, 2011 They would look nicer on 60mm bases anyway, and you could go to town with the base features. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/237437-twc-base-size/#findComment-2863643 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blacksad Posted September 1, 2011 Share Posted September 1, 2011 put mine on Dread bases (like the ones that come with the mythicast wolves) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/237437-twc-base-size/#findComment-2863827 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wulfebane Posted September 1, 2011 Share Posted September 1, 2011 put mine on Dread bases (like the ones that come with the mythicast wolves) Yeah, that's a 60mm base... it just has "character" to it.

Blacksad Posted September 1, 2011 Share Posted September 1, 2011 isn't the canis base larger? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/237437-twc-base-size/#findComment-2863872 Share on other sites More sharing options...
ezekiel09 Posted September 1, 2011 Author Share Posted September 1, 2011 isn't the canis base larger? No canis is on a 60mm base. Yeah I want to put mine on 60mm bases for the benefit of basing them up real nice, but wanted to make sure which was correct.
