Hi all,

I've only played Epic 40k once years ago and just had a blast with it.  I did get some Eldar as at the time there were many space marines, imperial guard and orks running around, but very few eldar.  While going through some of my minatures, modern, WW2, napoleonics...what did I find...my eldar.  Not sure why I stopped...but I'm going to start.  
After looking through some of the pictures on this forum, I decided that I would like to rebase my stuff as I don't like the strips that much.  Just wondering what I can put my Guardians, Farseer and other infantry type forces onto?  Medium, small or large bases?

There are the basic parameters for basing infantry in Epic: Armageddon. You bases can be any shape or size, as long as they adhere to the following rules:

1.1.2 Stands
As previously noted, a unit can be a single vehicle model,
or a stand made up of several very small models grouped
together and glued to a small base. Stands usually
represent things like infantry, where moving the
individual models round on their own would be very
fiddly with Epic scale models. All the models glued to a
stand count as a single unit as far as the rules are
concerned. The size of a stand and the number of models
glued to it are left pretty much up to the player to decide
within the following limitations:

• A stand may be no more than 40mm and no less than
5mm across in any direction.

• A stand must be at least 20mm across in one direction
(ie, a 5mm by 5mm stand is not allowed, but a 5mm by
20mm stand would be okay).

• Stands representing infantry units must have at least
three infantry models and may not have more than
seven. Infantry mounted on bikes or horses must have
between two and four models mounted on each base.

• Stands representing artillery must have between one
and two artillery pieces and up to six crew models.
