Miniature Sizes

By Draagnaj, in Descent: Journeys in the Dark

I was curious if anyone knew why the heroes are on 20mm bases and the rest of the medium size monsters and lieutenants are on 25mm bases. I ask because I am re-basing them on Litko MDF bases with a magnetic base. Most of my collection of other miniatures (aside from warhammer fantasy) are based like this, so they can be interchanged among other games. I can't think of any negative effect it would have to bring these up to a 25mm base to be consistent with the basing for others like Pathfinder or Myth. Thanks.

I don't know why the monsters are 25, but the heroes are possibly 20 to remain consistent with the other terrinoth games such as runebound and runewars. That is just a guess. Other guess? It was cheaper.

I'm replacing all the 1 square units (monsters and heroes) to use 25mm square bases. I mean, if they uses one square in the rules they should use the same base.
