Base Boss Bases You'd Like to See


Recommended Posts

Thinking about this more, I would like to see RPG Versions (Straight sides, like 74035) of the following existing Reaper Bases:

72252 1 inch Hex 
74071 70mm x 25mm "Oval"

74048 32mm Round

74040 20mm Square

74041 20mm Round (previously mentioned)
74038 1" Square
74024 40mm Square

I'd also like RPG versions of the following sizes that don't seem to match any existing Reaper bases that I can find pictures of. 

1'x2" (or 25mm x 50mm) Rectangles

50mm or 2" Square
1.5" Hex

Basically, I want lots of RPG versions, so any other size would be welcome, too.  If I had to pare my request down to three sizes, then they would be (in order):

20mm Round
1 inch Square

74071 70mm x 25mm "oval"

I'm really hoping for round flat bases in black, and clear (for water and air effects), in the D&D sizes of:

  • Tiny 20mm
  • Small/Medium 1" (25mm)
  • Large 2" (50mm)
  • Huge 3" (75mm)
  • Gargantuan 4" (100mm)
  • Colossal 6" (150mm)
  • Colossal+ 8" (200mm)

I have a number of 3d printed minis - inc. a Terrasque, ancient dragons, Tiamat, giant kraken, etc. - that will badly need massive 6" and 8" bases, and I'm having to resort to cheap MDF and clear acrylic bases as there's nothing much out there for the big beasties.

 

See SKU: 74037

As an update, if we could have a (D&D) miniature gaming pack of the round flat bases I'd love a set combination such as:

 

2x 10" black,

5x 8" black, 2x 8" clear,

10x 6" black, 5x 6" clear,

20x 4" black, 10x 4" clear,

25x 3" black, 15x 3" clear, 

30x 2" black, 20x 2" clear,

40x 1" black, 20x 1" clear,

40x 20mm black, 20x 20mm clear

I like the idea of bases you can slot things into, but what I was thinking was like a two inch base you could slot a one inch base into, or a three inch base you could slot a two inch base into, so if you had based a mini on a one inch base but your game called for a two inch base, you could just slide that sucker in there and you're good to go. So basically, like a ring I guess lol, but I think it would be useful.

You know, a 2" base with an edge slot that might make it a large crescent around a 1" one would also be very useful. It would be great for handling mounts in game. When riding the mount, you slot your normal mini into the base that has the mount on it.

 

I'd also love to see a 2" round with 3 slots, it would be great for some wargames where you can have your general with supporting pieces to look good such as with Saga

It appears Reaper doesn’t make 20mm slotta bases. This would be a nice addition for metal mini’s of goblins and halflings, etc. 

 

I will fully admit that this next base desire has limited retail marketability, but I’d love some 12mm RPG (straight edged) round bases. These equate to D&D Tiny size. The old DDM line had mini’s that came on bases this size (such as the Angelfire imp), and I’d like to rebase a few things on similarly-sized bases. But it seems no one really makes any.

They're putting together stuff for it now. It is projected to get going a little late. (No date given)

 

(From Reaper live last night)


Thanks!

Was there any indication or hints on if there will be any sculpted / scenic bases, or will this just be for different sized plain bases?

Ok, from what they mentioned on Reaper live tonight, it doesn't sound like they're doing scenic bases, just more various sizes to "fill out the line".

That's a pity to hear, if it's truly the case.  Here's hoping they get 55mm and 70mm bases then, plus the various Star Wars Legion sizes too...

Game line (angled edge): 60mm, 28mm w/o slot, 25mm w/o slot, and 40mm.
 

Thanks to @ksbsnowowl on discord for typing up the info and including the time for the video.

I saw y'all were talking about the kickstarter so clearly there's a need for a topic for it, so I made one.

Y'all feel free to re-post what you said here over there, if I merge your posts with the topic it'll sort them by timestamp and be confusing for future thread visitors.

 

Please leave this topic for making suggestions for bases you'd like to see and direct further BaseBoss 2 kickstarter discussion here: https://forum.reapermini.com/index.php?/topic/97321-reaper-baseboss-2-enthusiasm-and-commentary/
