Before I commit to basing my command units it would be good to have a look at what other people have done.

I especially would like to see how people have assembled together their FAO's/FAC's.

Please, post your work Cool

Here is my early-war British HQs and CO stand.

There are some early-war German infantry battalion and panzer HQs, and CO stand up there somewhere too.

I put together my Germans (Normandy/Eastern Front), Russians and Canadians. My basing sizes seem to have changed over time, but I doubt my Eastern Front Germans will meet my Canadians.

I'm still unsure how to arrange my miniatures for the various command units, but I have some ideas. I have:

2 x Sdkfz 253 command vehicle
2 x Kübelwagen
1 x Big looking Kübelwagen?
4 x Officer's looking over maps

Plus tons of soldiers pointing, officers and other infantry. What should I place and where for my:

CO, HQ, FAO, FAC?

Steve,

What size bases are you using for your CO/HQ stands. I'm doing 15mm too and still can't make my mind up 3"x2" is most likely for CO. Yours look really good and are in the style I'm trying to achieve, guessing they're 3"x3"

My command stands are bases on 60mm by 60mm bases. I will be basing my FAO/FAC on 40mm by 40mm i think.
