Duh - have you ever looked at the size of a standard metal Norse player? They were cool 5 years ago, but now my Snotlings tower above them and my Goblins have broader shoulders (well, almost) |

Round bases look cooler?
You've got to be kidding!
With square bases, the larger (medium) ones, you've got little to no dispute over who has gone and who hasn't, because when they are turned, they look sharp. Also, they cover the entire square the player is positioned on, which in my opinion, looks a lot better than scattered circles everywhere! |

Square bases suck and are far too WHFB-esque. |

God i've just transfered my big guys to the larger round bases, even the centaurs are on them instead of cav bases. Round is the way to go. |

I've placed them on round bases because it's easier to turn them 180 degrees once they've moved (and round bases are more display-like). |

Back in the elder days in which I was still a WHFB junky, I would sigh and think about how much better life would be with round bases under all my minis.
Unfortunately, there weren't any 20mm round bases and units would be too hard to move if they were on round bases.
I always thought about how lucky the 40k players were, and they didn't even know it!

Yeah, they're spoilt! We fantasy players have a lot of unfairness in our lives (why the heck aren't Nurglings Mischievous in Fantasy, like they are in 40k??? )
Anyway, round rules (except for teams with "flat" models like Skinks - how do you purt a Skink face down???) |

More to put on base sounds like a sound argument... |
