Japanese A&A Pacific 2nd Edition Color Match
Hey All.
If you are looking to match the default color for the Japanese, try Vallejo Liquid Acrylic 804 Transparent Orange and Model color 140 Flat Brown mixed 30 to 1 sprayed on an undercoat of 131 Orange Brown. It’s a dead match.

Japanese Cruiser Type (Problem solved:it is the misprint-class from Guadalcanal)
-
My Set includes two different styles of a japanese cruiser
One seems to be the heavy cruiser Takao (1932)
But, i can`t identify the lower one?
post scriptum edit: why is this cruiser the same type like an american cruiser (USS Portland) ? I never noticed this issue
-
The cruiser below is a special camouflage ship for the american player. The ship shall look like a japanese ship (because of the color) but in effect it is an american one! It refers to a navy unit of the so called Misprint-Class. :wink:
-
The cruisers in A&A Guadalcanal (the game which inaugurated the cruiser unit) were accidentally manufactured in the wrong colours. The Japanese-design cruiser was green and the American-design cruiser was orange.

Excellent. I knew someone would know the answer; I had no idea.
Well done Dedo and Marc! -
Yea that’s the misprint-class from Guadalcanal
