Some thoughts about terrain building in scale lead me to this project: Alexandrian armies in scale of 1:1000. In this way one day I might bring Gaugamela onto one table. Now I'm bent over my tiny armies (by Irregular) and try to work things out... First important thing: I wanted to arrange bases rather in smallest independent units. In the Maxcedonian phalanx these were 1024 men or two squares of long pikes. So I had to go for 2 pike units on one small 40mm base. Second I don't like the look of tiny miniatures on thick bases, so I took to laminated cardboard: stiff, thin, stable, won't warp when wet from glue or paint. ![](https://i.postimg.cc/4NFQXTTh/20240206-171257.jpg) The base making. ![](https://i.postimg.cc/PfvYZfPX/20240206-172739.jpg) Macedonians on the move. ![](https://i.postimg.cc/9QbJSXP3/20240206-175554.jpg) Glued and sanded. Drying.
