Re: Base Sizes (was Re: Re: [GZG] New game mechanics (was: Re: Namefor Rules))

If you don't specify an approximate base size you might run into some 
problems with other area effect weapons.

In Flames of War, conscript (poor quality) infantry have to be touching
at 
least one other base to form a chain back to their platoon HQ to be in 
command. There are far more vulnerable to artillery templates than
veterans 
that can have 6" between stands.

Or if you are assaulting, every stand within 2" of the enemy gets to
fight 
so putting your units on a smaller base might gain you an advantage.

I also think that similar bases makes for a better looking game and more

recognisable units amongst those that play.
