Re: Basing I usually make my entire list uniform with bases. The only time I vary the bases squad to squad is to identify different squads. ie. One squad has more gravel and another has more grass. But I still keep the same theme through out.
I did a fantasy unit once and based the unit as if it were at the edge of a swampy pond (one side of the unit had water and as it went into the unit it became more wet grass to marsh grass) That work for fantasy where you have blocks of minis. In a skirmish style game like 40k, I tend not to do that, it breaks the unit coherency.
Just my 2cents. |
