We have our infantry stuff on 30mm (front) x 5mm (deep) bases with 4 figures per base in two ranks. Our command bases are 60mm (front) x 50 (deep). We like the extra depth as it helps protect firing/march attack figures and allows us to do little vignettes if we want. 'Standard' sized units are 32 figures and large (Austrian) battalions are 40 figures. I hope this helps. Have fun with it!Curthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03202047917371080576noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5113124494092492419.post-28586072332980724552013-12-28T20:45:18.707-06:002013-12-28T20:45:18.707-06:00That just looks fabulous!!!

Is that right. About 42 figures to a battalion?
