Compare the 100mm and 150mm The Other Side Fireteam Base Sets by model count, footprint, and movement. See which multi-model base fits your collection.
Quick answer
Choose the 100mm Fireteam Base Set if you field five 30mm models as one formation; choose the 150mm Fireteam Base Set if your unit is three 50mm models. The decision is driven by model size and count, not by a better or worse base.
The real difference is model size, not just diameter
A 100mm base and a 150mm base look like a simple size upgrade, but the supplied configurations show they serve different model footprints. The 100mm set holds five 30mm models, while the 150mm set holds three 50mm models. That means the larger base is not simply roomier for the same miniatures; it is built around larger individual models.
Before buying, check the base size of the models you plan to mount. If your unit is made of 30mm models, the 100mm set matches that footprint. If your models are 50mm, the 150mm set is the relevant option. The catalog does not list a 100mm set for 50mm models or a 150mm set for 30mm models, so mixing configurations is not supported by the supplied product data.
Movement and table footprint trade-offs
Both sets are described as keeping a formation moving as one clean battlefield piece, which is the main practical benefit of a multi-model base. The trade-off is footprint: a 150mm base takes up noticeably more table area than a 100mm base, which can matter in tight deployment zones or dense terrain.
The 100mm set keeps five small models together in a compact footprint. The 150mm set gives three larger models a shared platform, but that platform is wider. Neither set is more accurate or more official than the other; both are official base sets, and the right pick depends on the models you own and how much space you can spare on the table.
Decision rules and trade-offs
- Match the model count and size first: Count your models and check their base size. Five 30mm models point to the 100mm set; three 50mm models point to the 150mm set. If your unit does not match either configuration, neither set is a direct fit based on the supplied facts. Write down model count and base size before ordering.
- Weigh table space against formation convenience: The 150mm base occupies more table area than the 100mm base. If you play on dense boards or have tight deployment zones, the smaller 100mm footprint may be easier to place. If your 50mm models need a shared platform, the 150mm set is the only supplied option for that size. Measure your usual play area if space is tight.
- Accept the fixed configuration: Each set is sold as a single configuration: 100mm for five 30mm models, 150mm for three 50mm models. The catalog does not list alternate model counts or mixed-size options, so plan around the supplied configuration rather than expecting a custom fit. Check the contents line before buying if you need a different count.
