Apparently the depth of the bases in DBM do matter, since IIRC it affects 'retreat/fall back', 'pursuit', 'combat' and other such game aspects.<br>
<br>
About halving DBM bases, it won't work since I can't see how I could split a 15mm chariot model in half to straddle 2 bases. Furthermore DBM uses 15x40mm bases for certain types of units which is nearly the same as the 20x40mm Warmaster bases. Certain DBM light infantry and skirmishers are based with those exact measurements too (20x40).<br>
<br>
So, halving the bases is not really a viable option since in some cases (as with infantry) the DBM base measurements are almost identical to Warmaster, whereas in others (notably cavalry, chariots and 'monsters') the measurements vary greatly. <p></p><i></i>
