So figures have grown bigger and bigger over the years as we all know. I rarely venture into 28mm territory, but I think I will for War of the Roses as, ultimately, it is not much more than 15s and just as much of a pain to store 
Now, I own 28mm figures from Old Glory (who would be my primary supplier) for Napoleonics and I can just fit 4 figures on a 40x40mm base. So for ranked men I can get close to a 20mm frontage per model. With the animated figures of Old Glory (and other manufactures as well) do you 28mm folks find clever ways to fight everyone on a stand? Do you adjust the base sizes? Do you lessen the figure count on each stand?
My thinking was to expand the frontage of my bases as I don't play against any regular opponent and it is primarily 15s in Texas from what I can tell. Plus they play 2.2+ which I would rather not if I have to drive over an hour to play! I was thinking of changing element frontage to 80mm, or just reducing the 4 figure count elements to 3 figures with the normal basing. Fast units could be represented on the base via the basing, color the basing, poses, figure layout, or, probably an easy solution, just increase the base depth a bit. This would give me more elements hmmmm
What do you do?
