Remtek Posted December 11, 2014 Share Posted December 11, 2014 There are some nice 32mm base conversions on Ebay, i was hoping our local gamestore had ordered the new bases, but they appear to be web store exlusives. Atleast there should be 20 or so in the Deathstorm box, but i'll be grabbing these for my old DC/Tactical models.

ShinyRhino Posted December 11, 2014 Share Posted December 11, 2014 There are actually only five 32mm bases in the Deathstorm box. They are for the Death Company models.

girot Posted December 11, 2014 Share Posted December 11, 2014 I read awhile back that the official ruling for base size is still a minimum of 25mm. The switch to 32mm was entirely aesthetic. For as long as I've been playing we could always use larger bases, just not smaller. My Mephiston, for example, is on a 40mm base.

j-smuv Posted December 11, 2014 Share Posted December 11, 2014 I've always liked the 30mm Malifaux bases with the inserts. The metal inserts fit into plastic bases you can get in different colors as well as the standard black. The colored bases are great for differentiating squads on the tabletop at a glance too. As an added bonus, since they are made of white metal, they're great for weighing down top heavy models. Thinking of doing the re-basing of my ASM with these.

knife&fork Posted December 11, 2014 Share Posted December 11, 2014 Warmachine use 32-33 mm bases, don't they? Should be plenty of after market stuff available already if you can stomach beveled bases.

Remtek Posted December 11, 2014 Author Share Posted December 11, 2014 They were pretty cheap, 15 pounds for 50 free shipping. Not sure what the ruling is, but my credit card is unchained this week. Polishing it as we speak.

ThatOneMarshal Posted December 12, 2014 Share Posted December 12, 2014 Yay black templars are there! Are the new tactical squad boxes being put on the 30mm bases?

Remtek Posted December 12, 2014 Author Share Posted December 12, 2014 Yep. Kinda confusing what the accepted rule is. I'm going for 25mm unpainted, then when there is a general consensus i might be throwing on the adapters.

Lucien Eilam Posted December 12, 2014 Share Posted December 12, 2014 There's never going to be a rule beyond what's in the rulebook, and that amounts to "do whatever you want, we don't care".

Remtek Posted December 12, 2014 Author Share Posted December 12, 2014 I was thinking more in terms of our group and tournaments. Rather just wait and see what people are comforable with. It makes template hit less, but harder to pile in.

Tabgoi Posted December 12, 2014 Share Posted December 12, 2014 I like the 32 mm bases, with a little boiling water you can curl a whole dead hormaguant for you death company to use as a floor mat I have like 4k of nids that I have not even bothered to assemble, figured I'd put some to use as a basing material, and these larger bases work great.
