Opening Salvo - USS Boise & Myoko

Good call. I ended up buying my iPhone last year when it was mucho dollars. I used money from a huge eBay auction I sold. Then, a month later, iPhones dropped $200. DANGIT! Of course, back then, I wasn’t introduced to A&A.

Great teamwork!!!  I guess I’m too stupid to help.  I’ll just cheer from the sideline

😄 😄 😄 😄 😄

When were complete I’ll be inviting players from some other site over to play here….

The previous link for the Guadalcanal miniatures campaign alternates between Axis & Allies Miniatures battles and War at Sea Battles. It does not tie in with their Guadalcanal board game. I don’t think they have yet to combine all three games into one campaign. I’d like to try something like that at my local game scene because I think it would be to difficult to do via PBEM.

Wow cool, we are going to get the Calliope,  I love the fact we get something halfway good that has rocket salvo…

Agreed on the inserts for tackle/tool boxes - I have one insert for each army, and it keeps them from rattling around (Used to keep each army in a booster box…lol).

All in good time mate!

More insomnia.

I got a look at the French tank mini - Renault R35? - yesterday. I noticed it had a cross with indented arms painted on its tail.
Wait up, I thought. That’s not French. It’s Romanian.
A little checking revealed that the Romanian Army had over seventy R35s that they bought from France in the 1930’s.

So, your R35 mini can fight as

-Vichy French, axis, against the British in Syria in 1941 or the Brits and Americans in Tunisia in 1942

Romanian, axis, as German allies against the Russians in 1941-44

Romanian, allied, as Russian allies against the Germans in 1944-5

German, captured, 1941 onwards.

French, allies, in 1944 (they hid a few and dusted them off after D-Day).

For that matter the Syrians used some R35s against the Israelis in 1948, and the Israelis captured several and used them right back….

When fighting alongside the Russians, the Romanians were still using lots of German kit including PzIVs.

In the same vein, there was a short - lived Australian Tank Regiment in Lybia in 1941 equipped with captured Italian medium tanks (they all had to be scuttled as the British didn’t have the diesel fuel to run them), and the British Guards Armoured Division had a ‘pet’ Panther tank named Cuckoo that saw action against its former owners in 1945.

Anyone know any better examples?

@Shemar:

Just my luck as I just started getting into the game. I have not found anybody to play in my area with the physical minis yet.

What area?
