Square & Rectangle Bases

Square and rectangular bases are widely used in tabletop wargames that feature ranked units and regiment movement. They provide clean alignment for troops, tight formations, and organized movement with trays or blocks. Perfect for fantasy armies, rebasing projects, conversions, unit fillers, and display pieces. Compatible with many game systems, including classic Warhammer Fantasy-style games.
