Flakpanzer IV Wirbelwind sounds good to me!

I went to a craft store and got a bead case that has 25 slots for $1.99.  It has one large one that can fit an amtrack and most planes and bases fit into a single slot very easily.  Down side is that there is at least one plane that doesn’t fit without minor surgery to remove a divider.  If they made the planes 3 pieces it would make it easier (base, plane, and connector rod)!

LOL  Thanks for the help!  I’ll be honest… if gun stays hard for more than two hours I am not calling dr or avalon hill until after I talk to my wife!

As for the medics in AAM, a friend was a field medic for a LRRP unit… he found out how useless they were when he broke his own leg!  Give me a Higgins Boat in Africa… or on the standard play map before a medic any day!

OK, I am not experienced with minitures so I have a couple of “first aid” questions here…

1 - Bent/Bowed Platforms - Anyone know a good technique for flattening them?
2 - (this is going to challenge my, and other’s maturity here)…  I seem to have a problem with… um… limp guns, mostly on tanks and artillery, anyone know a good way to get them straightened back up?  My worst is a German D-Day Marder II.

Thanks!

Thanks for the information!

Are there any reviews of the D-Day units yet?  I have found some good ones for the prior sets but not D-Day.
