In case this is useful, here’s a page which shows photos of all the sculpt types in A&A 1941 (http://www.axisandallies.org/p/axis-allies-1941-preview-unit-details-and-abilities/) along with a list of how many sculpts of each type are in the game.  Clicking on each picture will give you an enlarged version.

@AlphaKappa:

I’ve been looking for a control tower for air bases.  Good luck with your molds!  Hope that comes out well.

Thanks! Ill be sure to post them, as well as offer them if anyone would be interested. I moved here (CA) from WA awhile back, I knew where to get all that casting stuff, ive looked here, cant seem to find anywhere locally… ordering online is murder, shipping jugs of liquid… in addition, not sure what im getting. I may end up using fiberglass resin, something this small, should be fine… just takes long to cure and I gotta make a grip, unlike the casting resins, takes like 30 seconds.

Hi All,

If someone is interested, here 's our R&D set: https://www.mediafire.com/folder/owrasqpeass6a/R%26D.

These are materials for the Standard Global 1940/42 2nd edition rules and also for our simple houserule.

To speed things up we sometimes play a houserule. There the d12 board is used for along with a 12 sided die. Rule: at the beginning of every scond round (once a year) the player will roll a 12 sided dice for R&D w/o any payment. The player will gain the corresponding number in the R&D table as an ability at the end of that round. This is to give the player already the advantage during the buy phase, but not in the current attack (which he can prepare). Rolling a R&D number that you have already obtained is just though luck.

Let me know what you think, enjoy!

BAH!!! I was going to order them from https://www.litko.net/BMaker/ but if im going to custom order them I dont want to alter them. Especially if I go with something as clean as the Clear. I could go bigger… say match the size of the standard chips so they still stack nicely but i still think I will have the problem of them being top heavy in the end, especially since I want to have them 1.5" high and not just the one inch. I thnk Im going to hold out and try to snag up some 11mm dia 3mm thick steel blanks for a base. May take some time, but here’s to hoping

IL,

––I’ve come to prefer the new HBG markers for some of the same reasons you’ve just mentioned: They’re thicker, thus easier to pick-up and they are have much improved graphics and colors over the OOB markers. See below: OOB on left,….HBG on right.
----For most ot the “standard” territory markers, I still prefer having the bases of my Infantry units painted with their national insignia, thus making it unecessary to have to use “territory markers” at all.

@ancient:

Has anyone made any counters/Labels for the HBG miniatures?  Something like they use for Struggle for Europe and Pacific.

I’m not sure to what you’re referring.  Are you talking about replacing the plastic miniatures with tokens? Are you talking about identifying labels which would be be put on the board next to the plastic miniatures?  Are you talking about naval task force markers and their land counterparts?
