Hi all, I have lots of Epic infantry, and more coming, that are without the long bases. I dont want to use the square bases, as my burgeoning Jouran Dragoons  53rd Steel Legion army are all long bases.Does anyone know where to find these cheap - eBay doesnt have any by themselves. Ideas? Tee |

Buy them from GW. 16 is five bucks. It's not a GREAT price, but it's not that bad at all. |

in australia, its actually cheaper to buy an eldar warhost than it is to buy an eldar warhost worth of bases. madness i know but that's just how GW roll. You do get bases with the infantry packs right? (i personally have never bought one from GW) 32 bases and a bunch of models (i gather you dont get bases for the jetbikes, if you do its 36) for $35 or 32 bases for $36 |

One ooption is to get bases from GW. I reccommend the Ork Infantry - it has the most stands for the price, 38. Another option is to make your own out of two sheets of 1mm plasticard. The standard base has 1/4 in. holes. Time consuming, but inexpensive. You could also PM Otterman; he had some resin bases available last I checked. |

If you're even less picky, popsicle sticks are about the right width. Buy a pack for $1, and some spackle, and you're set forever. |

Thats a good deal - for GW  Tee |

I just cut all my converted khornies off their long bases and used washers from the local hardware store, 25 washers for 2.45, is way cheaper and i prefer the round base. picks will be up on my thread soon if you wana take a peek. |

i'm actually basing all my bloody hand (and a number of other armies both 40k and epic, i suspect) on 30mm flat edge (ie GW style rather than PP/Wyrd style rolled shoulder) bases that i bought at 1000 (plus a bunch more, by weight there seems to be about 1200 there) for $60 or so. cant remember the webstore, but i'm sure i could find it if needed |
