Hi there,
Just a short update today. I've started on the 10mm American Civil War figures seen in my Pendraken review. I decided to start with the Confederates, reasoning that their irregularity will make them slower to paint and thus once their down, the Union will seem easy! With basing I decided on 30mm wide, 20mm deep basing. Infantry will be six to a base, cavalry two. These bases are small so I can use them to play Regimental Fire and Fury. RF&F has artillery based short end to the front unlike the infantry and cavalry however I won't be doing this. The 30mm base width allows me to place two bases side by side to form a brigade for Altar of Freedom - gotta plan ahead with these things! Thanks for reading. :)

| Confederate infantry. These Pendrakens paint up so easily! Based the same way I've done my 6mm |
 |
| An example of how I'll base for Altar of Freedom - the bases are poster tacced onto a 60x30 base, leaving 10mm at the rear for labels. |
 |
| Commander (left) and cavalry (right). Going two per base with cavalry in my mind suits their role in the civil war (and makes my figures go further too!). |
 |
| And the rear. The command base is simply the command figures for the cavalry re-purposed as the force commander. |
