Still ha...Monty, not quite back in the saddle yet. Still having difficulty getting down to the game room in the evenings after work. Weather made a turn for the better and I have not made it downstairs since Saturday.<br /><br />I look forward to reading about your exploits using LONGSTREET. Since LONGSTREET uses base widths for measuring distance, any basing scheme should work as long as both sides are similarly based. BFF and RFF both list 1.0 x 0.75 inch stands for infantry so that should work for LONGSTREET too.<br /><br />For my 10mm ACW project, I mount two five-figure strips on a 1.125 x 0.875 base. Each base counts as two RFF bases. Scott mounts his 15mm RFF infantry three per 20mm x 15mm base (or maybe it is 25mm by 15mm?).Jonathan Freitaghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07862373894196924886noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2267180105171392028.post-43782604676604150422013-03-31T07:42:05.461-07:002013-03-31T07:42:05.461-07:00You're back in the saddle! A Hussar regiment ...You're back in the saddle! A Hussar regiment plus ACW is a busy weekend. Nice work, and interesting basing on the ACW. <br /><br />Some of us are going to jump into ACW via Longstreet and we've decided to base in a way that would allow us to also field the ACW armies under Fire and Fury. I should buy F&F so I can remember what the basing requirements are. <br />;-)Montyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16094254709103687259noreply@blogger.com
