I just wanted to pass on to everyone some new units on Shapeways that are now in Axis and Allies size.
C.O.B. Constructs and Miniatures has a set of New Mexico class Battleships in 1/3800 scale that are perfect for your light Battleships and New Aragon Mechanical Works has just made available a Aichi E16A1 Zuiun (Paul) float plane in the 1/500 scale. So, if your looking for some new units to add to your board then check these two out.
SHAPEWAYS, US "Catalina" Flying Boat
-
Flying Boat Techology: Can transport (2) INF in Combat and Non-Combat using Sea Zone around Ilands or Coastal Areas.

Those are sweet looking. :-D
-
So the house rule is that they can transport inf with them, with the range of a normal plane, as long as they are in a coastal or island sea zone?
-
Yes, I’m sorry. (4) movement. Really several different ways you can implement the Catalina. These transports can land and take off from water.

Richard,
––Really nice paintjobs on the ‘Cats’!
----I, too, am a big fan of the Shapeways units having over two hundred of them so far. The detail on all of them is the ultimate,….and your paint jobs only add to that. It’s just about ‘killin’ me to have to wait while all of these awesomely detailed units make their way through the painting que. Well, in the end it will be worth it. Again,…nice work on the ‘Cats’.
