I now have 3 sections of Japanese ready for action, platoon command
and an HMG team so am ready to give the Bolt Action rules a go.
I have never been a fan of single based figures/games- Far too much faffing about moving
figures for my liking. However I see some people are using multiple stand
movement trays or their figures in Bolt Action so have decided to experiment with two figure bases for my figures. I am doing so for
my weapon teams such as light mortars and LMGs anyway- using a counter or die
to record losses if need be.
My thoughts are that most figures will be double based on
the Rendra plastic 45mmx 40mm bases I use or LMG teams.
So what I am thinking is or a unit of 12 Japanese or
example:
1x NCO
1x single figure stand
1x LMG team
4x double based teams
So slightly less movement fiddling about. The single figure stand can also be used to replace
a stand when I need to have a single casualty.
Anyone else use similar systems?
Here is my first 12 man section done this way. All miniatures
are The Assault Group and they are highly recommended.
LMG team
A two man stand. The squad advances.
NCO with SMG.

I like those, well done :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Dave, I'm adding a bit more foliage to improve them some more
DeleteThey look great. The two man teams give you more scope to add some interest to the bases I think.
ReplyDeleteAgreed and so am making them a bit more jungly
DeleteVery very nice work Craig!
ReplyDeleteThanks Rodger
DeleteReally nice work on these guys. Nice variety of shades on the uniforms and the basing is great too. Dean
ReplyDeleteThanks Dean, am still experimenting with the uniforms :)
