Base sizes

Post by NonnoSte »

Hi everyone,
I was just wondering if an index of the base sizes of the various models of WHFB was available somewhere.
I have old models or alternative models of chariots, eagles, monsters and other big stuff with wrong bases or no bases at all and i'd like to make my owns.
The problem is that i cannot find the sizes for each of them.

There's standard sizes which depending on what unit it is will be shown in the main Rule book, check out pages 482 and 485.

Edit, sorry got distracted by the tv there a minuite.

What army are you talking about ? I'm guessing Wood Elves ?
Its been too long since we burned a heretic, witch hunt anyone !??

You can always ask specific models here. There used to be a PDF from the beginning of 7th edition but i don't see it linked google to see if you can still find it perhaps?

As far as I know there is no 'official' list of base sizes.

At some comp in Nottingham they state 'the size the model came with' at others they go for a standard list (see below)

Not sure what the actual answer is.

Infantry 20x20/25x25
Monstrous Infantry 40x40
Cavalry 25x50
Monstrous Cavalry 50x75/50x100
Chariots 50x100
Flyers 40x40 (this is very dodgy as some monster are flyers too)
Monsters 50x50/50x100

Just what I have experienced. :smirk:

Then eagles should be 40x40?
And great stags 50x75?
What about dark sorceress on pegasus?
and the new cauldron of blood?
All lizardmen monsters are 50x100?

These are all models I have from older version or alternative brands.

If someone had an old Eagle on a 40mm it wouldn't really be an issue. It's not a Brass Cleaver Gorebull.

Great Stags have never shipped with a 50x75 base. Only 50x50.
