This should be the background music for FMG's upcoming youtube introduction to their newest German set:


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7w17MamPY7A

Wagner's Prelude 1 to Act I of Parsifal!!!!!   Skip to 05:23 and you will hear the thunderous entrance of the Panzers as they are ushered in to the accompaniment of French horns and other brass: Priceless!

Nice!  But I vote for the Koeniggraetzer March!  One of the most popular German war marches ever and one of Hitler's favorites, although it existed prior to the Nazis.  It's the one that was playing on Indiana Jones & the Last Crusade during the Nazi book burning rally!  Awesome march...

I voted for the UK - but I'd love to see Japan up there too.

Given that Germany is released next - Japan will finish off the Axis side  so I like the thought of all FMG pieces for half the game being complete.

Well, count me in for a UK set then.  And definitely count me in for a French set.

Richelieu for a BB!
Oh yeah, the French BB definitely has to be the Richelieu.  A while back, I was heavy into building models, my favorites were 1/350 scale battleships.  So far, I have the USS Missouri, the Bismarck, the Yamato and the HMS Prince of Wales.  I saw a 1/350 scale Richelieu somewhere, but they wanted over $200 for it.  That was just too much for me.

here is one for just 69.99

FMG, KGV Battleships, Excellent choice.  A minor modification and you can have Pre-WWII RN Lion Class Battleships that never where built.  What are looking at producing for UK Armor and Artillery?  I would like to see a Crusader III and Comet or Churchill V for the UK.  Artillery 5.5 Howitzer or British 25lber Field Gun.

WARRIOR888,
I totally agree with you on the Crusader for one of the British Armor sculpts.  That was a really cool tank.  As for the second, I would probably vote for the Churchill.  I like the 25 pounder field gun too.

militaryman077,
Thanks for the link to that eBay listing.  With shipping it would be nearly $100, but that's still way better than I priced this model before.  I don't usually like to get stuff from China, but I may make an exception in this case.  Anyway, thanks again.

I voted for Russia after UK. I just want to see that armor for Russia. Artillery piece with the tracks on it. Russians in winter garb and the Zhukov piece. Count me in.

Their second armor piece should be Katyusha rockets!  Those would be SWEET!

UK should be removed from the poll, as FMG is doing them next anyway.  This poll should read 'after UK'

Ok, Jim.  It's done. All votes have been reset to zero and let's do it again.

Didn't know you reset the poll.  I voted again and still chose France.  Even though I am very curious to see what units FMG will come up with for Japan and Russia, I still really want to see France get their own equipment.  Also curious to see how close FMG's French blue comes to the OOB color.

Hey DFWSupertrooper,
I would like to see the Katyusha rockets too, but I don't think they would fit as an armor piece.  Plus, Russia has so many tanks to choose from.  Katyusha Rockets are more of an artillery piece, but not sure if FMG would want to make it their artillery piece.  Perhaps this one should be left to HBG as a mobile artillery piece in his Russian supplement set.

Yeah, good point...as long as we get them I'll buy them from whoever!! Smiley
