Description of Bases
Small two-hole base (x5) Small three-hole base (x1) Medium four-hole base (x8) Base plug sprue (x1)

All Flames Of War infantry and guns are supplied with appropriate bases. Assemble your infantry teams by gluing the figures into the holes on a base of the right size. Super glue works well for this.

There are usually several figures with each type of weapon, so you can create variety in your teams. It doesn’t matter which mix of figures you put in each team, as long as the mix of weapons is right.
