So that a squad can have a Sgt and Nine and if needed, two of the nine can sit in a HW base. <br /><br />Congrats on the team Admiral, they look good. The 'ruined road' bases are very effective.Zzzzzzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02363838253700265309noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5898341582574934477.post-35770148489657314462010-05-18T14:34:11.377+01:002010-05-18T14:34:11.377+01:00Bravo, Drax - you give those of us with massive un...Bravo, Drax - you give those of us with massive unpainted armies hope that they too may one day reach completion!

Great pose. Even though you are not fond of the half-base technique, the bases on all of them are stellar.<br /><br />Great start on the Hydra. I'll be watching this one closely, as I've just acquired the Aegis box for such a try.
