I spray mine with a white primer, then a white paint. I then use a finish to protect the paint.
Make sure you turn the piece white with the primer, the paint dos not cover as well as primer.
I AGREE. The cardboard may take up less space but they are too hard to see with plastic chips and units stacked all around. @Bob_A_Mickelson:
I must say that I cant get over my disappointment that the new A&A Pacific and Europe 1940 games will now feature cardboard units for the Major and Minor industrial complexes as well as cardboard AA guns, Air and Navy bases. I hope that creating plastic versions of these units will be a project that FMG will be willing to take up in the future.
Do any of you agree?
FMG is developing a brand new set of high quality plastic pieces for A&A games, and they include some new units as well.
This is basically a thread to discuss ideas in pieces that either didn’t make the cut, and/or you’d like to see if at all possible in any future FMG Product.
For example, a cargo plane unit, 5 IPCs, carries 1 infantry.
Tech specific units, like jets, nukes, rockets, heavy bombers?
