Sort of getting back in to 40K after a hiatus.

Notice the new Primaris come on bigger bases as well as heroes on even bigger and Marneus on much bigger base.

I did look at the guide on Dakka but even that seems out of date and on the GW website it looks like the GSC magus is now on a 32mm but doesn’t specify, so that site has holes in clarification.

Guide on Dakka for ref https://www.dakkadakka.com/wiki/en/Basing_Guidelines_for_Warhammer_40,000

Anyway in a nutshell I suppose what I want to ask is, is there a definitive online resource with all the base sizes for every army?

Thx Chimaera.

In general:
GEQ - 25mm
GEQ characters - 32mm
MEQ - 32mm
MEQ characters - 40mm

Though I'm sure there are exceptions, and when it comes to super special characters I don't think there really is a standard at all. Probably the best online resource is to go the the GW web store and check which bases are included with the kits for a sample of troops, elites, HQ etc. for the army in question.

Tharses project, look it up

Thanks for the pointers guys.

Hopefully the Dakka one will get updated, much prefer it’s layout.
