Gentlemen,

I use 28mm figures and currently my normal line unit is 24 figures
(6 stands of 4); and cavalry 12 figures (4 stands of 3).

Re: Basing Question ???

Hi there

The only thing I would add to Keiths comments is
(1) if both opposing armies conform to your basing there really is little
difference and
(2) as you havent mentioned the number of stands in the unit, I tend to
use 4
stands of cavalry (8 figs) and 4 stands of infantry (16 figs). This usually
provides a finely balance cav vs infantry fight which can be touch and
go (does
the infantry stay in line and use its firepower, or form square?) - if
you had a
unit of infantry with say, twice the number of stands, up against a unit of
cavlary, the result would be much more of a foregone conclusion.

Happy gaming
