Thanks.
That was the information I was aiming for, just unsure of my understanding of the rules.

And being unarmoured doesn't count for anything?

I've got plenty of Legionaries ready for combat,
Also have plenty of Camping Legionaries.
I want to use the Marching Legionaries for a possible scenario, ambush which a poster mentioned earlier, which is why I want the appropriate basing.
So if somebody could come back with a helpful answer I would ...

Just got a set of Marching Legionaries for my birthday.
Warlord Games 28mm.
Now to base them.
2 on a 30mm deep base?
My reasoning being that they are unarmoured and not ready to fight immediately.
Armoured and ready to fight would be 4 on a 20mm deep base.
What have other people done?
Many thanks

Never played the game, bust just bought rulebook and Legions Triumphant.
