Guys, does anyone know what the "industry standard" is for basing 6mm?
I know that Warrior/WRG and DBM both use a 40mm front and the DBA rules

Peter Berry of Baccus 6mm fame shows his figures with 60mm frontage. This serves mutiple purposes, the most importance of which is he gets to sell more figures...	James Doty jamesd_iii	Jan 4, 2009 8:57 am
