Hey Epic fans, how goes it? I am going to try my hand at Epic gaming soon, and will start assembling some Imperial Guard. I picked them up years back at a clearance sale, and it's quite the company of metal!
A big question for me is this: is it acceptable to base the infantry and tanks on 25
mm round bases? I am thinking of using 3 infantry models to a 25
mm base, just to make the metal infantry go further. I'm hoping to add lots of details to the base like craters, tree limbs, disposed weapons, rubble, enough to make it a fun modelling project. The tanks just look nice mounted on a base as well. I'm mostly using the Epic: Armageddon
IG models and there is little model variation, so I want to challenge myself on the bases.
The odds of me having a game in my area area slim (until I model a second faction) but in the future I'd like to use these models against other forces. What kind of tactical implications are there to using round 25mm infantry bases? I'm an informed newbie, and just don't want to model myself into a corner!
