-----> addl $.02: For small single vehicles (dreads, maybe even buggies,
atk bikes, etc) I use either the old Epic bases, or some Old, Old,
counters from the original Battlesystem which came with about a zillion
1/2", 3/4", 1" square counters and a bunch of cavalry markers with twice
the length. I've used these for years for regular rpg mini's, Battletech
minis, and Epic minis. I think I'm finally running out...
   For the double-based (Sm/TL) I also used the above. For the triple
based new units I just mark off balsa wood sheets and cut it to the
right size as I just like it better than cardboard or plastic.
