Hold up.

What's the difference between a sabot and a movement tray?

If we broke into EB's shed and destroyed all his bases - would it be sabotage?

Well it wouldn't be triage.

Movement trays allow for side by side close order single bases. Sabots are big bases with holes in them for smaller bases. There is usually a big difference in the overall size. Unless Im wrong?

Cheers Tim,

My sabots are different. The bases fit side my side with no gaps.

Jeez! it's like the last days of Soddom and Gomorah in here.
Unless you're proposing actually joining EB on a little base like two wargaming homunculi? In which case....I have no idea what that's like!

Live and let live I say. EB’s right to rebase is entrenched in the 143rd amendment (paragraph 194, sub paragraph h) I believe. I’m not too bothered what base sizes he uses, but I may really lose my shit if he paints the underside the wrong color. Again.

You may have said earlier, but what figures might you be using?

I’m currently fixed on 25mm Staddens.
