Does it made what size base I use for orclings?

I was thinking about going a different size, but not sure if it would affect the rules or not.  Huh

As Large Infantry, they should be on either 40 or 50mm square bases.

Depending on what you want to do with them, you could base them individually or in pairs on 20/25mm bases, using 4 to count as one large base, or do a few on a 50x25mm base, and rank them up to count as a larger base.

Really, it doesn't matter too much, as long as the footprint of the unit is about the right size.

For example, my Werewolf Undead army is all multibased on 125x50mm bases, which falls between the 120-150mm frontage for Large Infantry, and it has never been an issue with anybody.  The reality was I had the bases for units of 5 cavalry models, and was too impatient/pressed for time to order 120x40mm bases.

Seriously, if anybody is going to **** and moan about a few mm, then they probably aren't worth playing anyway.

Go for 40x40mm.

Makes them compatible with both KoW and Warhammer.
