Bases Survey

Bases Survey

We've suddenly found ourselves with seven sets of hard plastic bases in various sizes and styles. We wanted to know what else you'd like us to do for bases?

I like the idea of the spaceship decking bases. 25mm and 30/32mm and 40mm with the 3mm bevel would be excellent. I’ve been kitbashing Ooh-Rah! with Eisenkern to make some “Space Marines” of my own. They look a lot like the MMC troops from the Expanse. Given that you guys are helping make the Expanse minis this would be an excellent time to make some great bases to go along with them. I also discovered that 40mm bases work great for light weapons teams (HMG, Rocket, drone controllers, etc) so having some with that same texture would be great. And of course powered armor troops like the Valkir would likely need some as well. It’s more complicated to make good decking bases than rubble bases, so I feel this would be a better direction than dirt or rubble.

Textured bases in every common size are always useful and would be appreciated. However, what is required is that the underside of the base is deep enough to seat a 3mm tall magnet, so if you’re sculpting detail on it needs to raise above the 3mm height, not sink below into the recess beneath the base.

Cobblestone or flagstone texture would be nice as a fantasy equivalent to the spaceship texture.

Some kind of spaceship/flying base, especially good spaceship bases are hard to come by, and will be needed for the future Expanse-ships anyway =)

Standard GW shapes and sizes with different textures for me, please.

15mm & 20mm dual use round

32mm round textured bases. That would make the space marine legions a little bit quicker to finish!

Honestly, I don’t care for plastic bases anymore.
I have a laser cutter and I can make any bases I need from MDF sheet.
Before that I mostly just used washers (8mm body washers are perfect for 25mm round bases).
I’d rather see this energy spent making something I can use, like accessory sprues or something.

Expand the range of round dual-use bases to include 30, 40, and 60mm, please.

As comment did not work in the survey for me: I like the beveled hight bases and the sizes I need are typically 25mm, 32mm, 40mm and the oval cavalry size 60×35mm. Having more variants like the spaceship interior or the simple mud texture in plastic would be great.
