Clear Bases for Cruel Seas


One of the things that spooked me a bit when I played Cruel Seas is the absence of bases for the models, which for some inexplicable reason just seems wrong. I thought that clear acrylic bases would be a good idea, as they would protect the models, which have some fragile parts, from handling and still allow the wake markers to be used. They would also make storing the models easier. I've now found a source of inexpensive laser cut acrylic bases here:

I'm going to get some for my S-100 E boats and G5 MTB's to see if they work.

    I think they have sizes that fits the smaller boats but i'm not sure about the minesweepers, escorts etc.
