There is a modded map with ww2 era units that is fun to play.
Has alot of nations as well.
Ill link it. Thinks its world in flames or somthing along that lines. Really fun though i have no one to play with, so i just invade the other nations.
You start off with units and a few factories, oil drills and defenses.
Also has a nice year counter that opens up new unit production. Think there are a few super weapons (germany has V2 installation. Cant recall the others. Check it out and maby we can play some time.

Variable,
Didn’t the Raiders dye some of their uniforms with black ink to make them darker for island raiding? It would be cool to have a couple uniforms that had that effect.
Yes, some of the 2nd Marine Raiders (Carlson) dyed their dungeries with black ink before their Makin Raid. It was a simple expediency for that operation only as they were somewhat thrown into the raid before they were completely ready. As I recall their was a picture taken of some of the returning Raiders on the deck of the big mine-laying subs that they utilised for their transport(this one and ONLY time).
I’m sure I can find the pic in one of several books I have about the Marine Raiders.
By the way,…Don’t you think it will be “Cool” to have some Marine Raiders in an A&A game? Personally, I’m very excited about this and all of the other new units and “UNIT TYPES”, not to mention the new game/maps that are “in process”.

When I painted my Guadalcanal game I painted 2 of the infantry figures to look like Raiders. No special rules or anything, just something cool to look at. Like my jungle camo Betty and individual US carriers.

As they say in the Navy,…Well done.

And a close-up of the front and back. There are 4 of these, representing the 4 Raider Battalions.
The US Marine Raider “Chutes”, or ParaMarines are next.

Pretty sweet there Paul! You’re making me want to bust out the paint set again.

Again,…any credit for the Awesome paints jobs must go to “Allworkandnoclay”.
I’m only the guy who comes up with the great ideas and then has to pay for them. I guess you might call it a team effort of sorts,…Haha.

And here are the US Marine Raider ParaMarines, also known as the “Chutes”.

Man, those are SWEET. What infantry molds are they from?
Forget it, I got the answer now. :-)

Lozmoid,
These are the Paratroopers from HBG’s U.S. Supplement Set.

Everyone,
The next units I’ll probably get painted will be some Major and Minor Industrial complexes along with several Anti-Aircraft Guns, too.
