Basing - number of figs per stand
« on: September 02, 2011, 12:07:32 AM »
Hey folks,

Any recommendations on how to base my Army of Saladin?

I'm thinking 10 figs per base for infantry, 8 for archers, 4 for shock cav, 3 for scrub cav.

Ideas?

Hi Amnar,

It's  sounds good to me the numbers of figures you are considering. I use a similiar guide but the definitive number depends of the figures themself.

For shock cavalry sometimes I base 4 knights in the middle stand and 3 knights in the other two stands. And then is easy to know who is the central stand without banner.

For mounted skirmishers I go for 3 horses in the middle and 2 horses in the other two stands. And looks good. Depends a lot of the figures you are using.

hope it helps
