Ive finished my Mordheim conversion and made a stonking looking Skaven team, along with an assistant coach (treasurer) and an apoth. I have used the square bases for now, but I was wondering, does it matter which bases u use. I know officially it comes with round bases for models, but is it important to use round ones?
What bases you use doesn't matter (especially since the new rules for passing state take into account the square a player is one, and not the base) but I think that
Round Bases Look Better,
Much better!

Square bases are okay if you are using them for the normal players...but Big Guys on bigger squares becomes unruly to have other players (in their correct squares) next to one...so get the bigger round ones if the Big Guy doesn't fit on a smaller one (because some of them will!).
Reason:''
The end-zone “line of death” does not discriminate when one tempts fate by using a “go for it” to pass over it.
Just model mounds of dead players at the feet of all your players and dispense with bases completely.

Currently an ex-Blood Bowl coach, most likely to be found dying to Armoured Skeletons in the frozen ruins of Felstad, or bleeding into the arena sands of Rome or burning rubber for Mars' entertainment.
Actually, a firend of mine created a circular base model of skulls (using the individual plastic skulls found in Warhammer Quest or other GW fanatsy models) and used it as a master for a mold for resin casting. Then he created a bunch of the skull bases for his 40K space marine characters...it looks really cool.
Something like that would be cool for an undead team...actually any BB team really.
