And I can tell you it is not a random comment, we have playtested that..

We have played CLASH with:

Warhammer FB 3ed armies ( where cav are in 25×50 and orcs have bigger bases than others )
Current GW Lord of the Rings ( where cav are in round bases )
Multi based ( 4 figures per stand ) ancients
15mm ancients multibase
6mm treating one stand as “a figure” ( as I mentioned from our playtesting group in Spain )
Dark Ages and Ancients individually base in round and square bases

Every time a rule appeared to be susceptible to abuse through basing we adjusted the effects so that it would be truly base agnostic..

Example, command range is a circular area centered on your hero, now I don’t need to worry if your hero is on a big Saga style scenic base or a simple 20x20mm base… ( initially it was the standard measure base to base 🙂 )

That is just one example..
