Check the back of the old Epic boxes, you'll find that there are very few
(if any) mini's that you couldn't use.
If you need to then order bases from mail order. (about A$0.80 each). I
know I just did. The only old mini's
that appear to be changing is the IG (Somebody told me they don't like the
old sprue so they are re-doing it).
Trade mini's to other people who have bought the game (I'm looking for
ORK's here in OZ).
Annother trick is to short base the stands. Why put 5 marines on a base,
get extra bases and only put 2 or 3.
It's a way to bulk out your army to start with.
