Epic and formations

[SteveT]

In Epic , how are people handling units going into squares that have less than 3 strips?

Cheers

While I don’t game, Epic scale, I have gamed with different base configurations.  You and your opponent need to agree what constitutes the way to display a given formation.  In the past, three “stand” units displayed a square formation as a “triange”, while two “stand” units displayed it with one stand facing forward and one backward.  Given the importance of frontage in Black Powder, I would have the triangle face oriented so the enemy most like to strike it, would contact one of its faces, not its “points”.

Cheers. I had wondered about keeping 1 strip removable , that would allow even 2 bases to make a square..

Thanks, Mike.

It occurred to me that if bases were mounted so that one strip could be removed , 2 bases would be able to make a perfect square…
