    Default Mounting your 1/1200 ships

    Since I heard SoG ship bases will be 50x75mm, who is mounting their 1/1200 ships on 50mm x 75mm bases

    That's a good question. There are two sizes I've gotten from Langton's. One is 40mm x 85mm and the second size is 40mm x 75mm. SoG bases don't match either one. I suppose I could mount the Langton bases on a wooden riser that matches the SoG size, but it might look dorky?

    Mine are based 80x30mm for SoL, 60x30mm for frigates and brigs, smaller for unrated small craft. I'll have to think about a solution to this one, as I am not going to rebase. Using a sabot base is the most likely solution.
