Last I heard, you can use the current size, or a bigger size. The exception for smaller base sizes is if the base come with the model. So, you can't re-base the marines you just bought onto spare 25mm's, but if you have a box in the basement that still comes packaged with the 25mm, they are legal.

I don't want the best army, just one that isn't an exercise in picking up my models by turn 3.

It doesn't matter if you're not dominating the game; if you have 3-4 x as many models and options than the rest of us and you're still getting new kits, we're still gonna rip on the faction. If I had 100 + Drukhari kits all in plastic to choose from, or 100 + Sisters kits, I think I'd be more likely to be receptive to Space Marine player's complaints about anything.

The 2E Avatar is nowhere near 5" tall. Maybe 3".

A 2E Eldar Dreadnought stands 4-5" tall, including vanes.


Well the dreadnought isn't doing much hiding though. It has these legs. With gaps between them. The avatar behind is perfectly visible from there.

Height doesn't matter. You can't even hide gretching behind rear of a rhino.

I tried to base mine on a 25mm base, but it kept falling over. So I went with a 120mm base. Forces my opponent to deal with him before getting to the rest of my army. Big base like that really soaks up the real estate on the table!
