Actually, I base my 15mm miniatures on 1/4 inch washers which work perfectly with the AD map. When it comes to 25mm minis the usual convention has been 1 inch bases but I adopted using 7/8 inch fender washers years ago. I found that by reducing the base size by 1/8 made it easier to pack them into tight formations and for moving them around each other in a congested tactical encounter. The only issue with fender washers is that they come in both magnitizable and non magnitizible metal and if you plan to use magnetic storage you need to make sure you get the right ones.
