For 15mm deckplans (I've got lots over the years, and they're great for
sci-fi games), I would recommend a 12mm ferrous washer.

If you need to scale up for a wargames-type scenario, use an old CD and
glue magnetic strip on before flocking over the top (you may or may not need
to leave gaps for the washers, depending on the thickness of the flock).
Instant formation bases without getting RSI from moving all those tiny
figures...

I've now got (shudder) some 15mm figures and must (shudder) base them to
consider (cringe) painting them (or more likely getting someone with better
eyes to do that). I'd like them to be usable with 15mm
deckplans and on 15mm-scaled map grids. I plan to use them for RPGs,
FMAS and SG style games. I'd rather avoid the group basing, though I have an
idea for building generic group bases they could sit onto, once I figure out
what size or roundish thingie I should be basing them
on....
