Does anyone know where I maybe able to find a 50mm square base where I can put a 50mm round base inside of it? Basically I'm trying to use mu ultraforge plague daemon in fantasy for my daemon prince for WoC.

You're not gonna be able to put a base of the same size inside another.

But you can magnetise the bottom of one so it snaps on top of it.

I beg to differ, you can, but you need to use thin plasticard to support the base, essentially what you are doing is creating something like this.


Round can go into square, but square cannot go into round.
I've done it for Daemon models, It just takes a bit of cutting.

so you're either building more onto a square or scraping off of a round? I think my point still stands
And I feel it's easier to just magnetise them and add some flock the the parts of the square that the round isn't covering.

I think you're missing my point.
You claim your point stands because it can't be done, I'm demonstrating that it can.
I'm about 3500miles from the model I did this for, so I cant give photos, but here is the method.

My method is this.
Take the square base.
Place the round base on top, then scribe around the perimeter.
cut out the scribed center portion.
Glue the four corner pieces onto a 50mm square of thin plasticard.
flock the four pieces to match the round base.
You now have a multi use base that is legal for both fantasy and 40k that is the same height as a standard base (barring the negligible thickness of the plasticard.
I've done something similar with movement trays so 40k daemons can rank up for fantasy, although in that case I used milliput to fill the gaps between bases.
