I hope you all can help me with what is going on with the new base sizes for 40K.

I noticed that GW has switched to larger bases so do you have to rebase you figures I assume you can keep them based as they are still selling both base sizes. I also noticed people are talking about base extensions where do you get them? \

Lastly is there a chart somewhere that tell you who is on what base now

Thanks

You can keep em on the original base they come with.

Look on ebay for things like laser cut base extenders

No real chart. Generally things that look good on 32mms will now be on 32mm like space marines and possible some necrons.

Check your rulebook.
It probably says the model should use the base it came on.
If the model looks silly on a 25mm base, and if the new version comes with 32mm bases, look to convert.

Look at Terminators. I have some old ones on 25mm bases, and newer, plastic ones on 40mm bases.
If I converted them all to 40mm, the old ones might look just as silly.
