    65mm by 85mm - the same size as the Heavy Fighter bases. Keith has some bases for Blenheims and Ju-88's on sale in the Aerodrome Store.

    Check in the albums of OldGuy59. He does some wonderful cards.

    For Ju-88 cards follow this link. https://www.wingsofwar.org/forums/do...p?do=cat&id=80

    The cards I've done don't always end up in either the 'Files" section, nor my albums. Bad me.

    (Blenheim Mk I and Mk IV bombers. No management cards as there are only two positions that affect game-play. You can 'manage' a Bomb-Aimer, if needed for a scenario.)

    Sorry to be a nuisance, but Im gessing that Dornier 17z and heinkel 111are both heavy bombers, so what size bases do they use?

    The Heinkel III bases are 108mm x 80mm. The models use the large bomber pegs.

    The Dornier 17z had a narrower wingspan but was longer than a Junkers 88, so I think that a heavy fighter base will be appropriate. Until Ares release the official models we cannot be certain.

    I would not categorize either as a heavy bomber. I would say medium bombers would be a better description.
