    • RE: Tall Paul's Dad, a WW2 vet, passes away

      As the greatest generation passes before our eyes, we cannot thank them enough for the freedom they preserved for us. We can never repay them but always thank them. You must be very proud and we are all sorry for your loss. Thank you for all your father has done and we appreciate his service to our country.

    • RE: HBG U.S. Naval Sculpts Preorder

      @DFWSupertrooper:

      Are these pieces for the A&AG40 game or A&A Miniatures??  If these are A&AG40 scale - HOLY CRAP!  Very nice…

      No,
      These are a resin 1/2400 scale miniatures that I posted to show the different ships that possibly be done, these are not preproduction pictures.
      The metal miniature is a Midway class carrier.

      Yes, Bismark was a good looking ship too. The American battleships were designed to fit through the Panama canal so they are not very wide which makes them not as good looking as Yamato and bismark. Both battleships had their advantages. If the yamato ever landed their 18.1" shell on a ship……ouch!

      I Plan on doing a few ships for each supplement set I already am doing.
      I definitely will do a Japanese Naval set if we do the US set.
      I plan on doing these in Olive, but we can look at the darker green too.

      I believe the hull was actually started on the first two Montana clas BB’s.

    • RE: United States Set from Historical Board Gaming!

      Yes, it is the C-46 Commando, since FMG is doing the C-47, I decided to do a different Transport. The C-46 was used to fly over the hump after the Burma road was closed.

      Sadly a lot of the newsletters we send out end up in Spam.
      We are trying to do a better job getting the news out. We will be on AAA.org more also.

    • RE: What's New at Historical Board Gaming?

      @Midnight_Reaper:

      The only problem I have with HBG’s new flight markers is that they stop at 6. Between long range aircraft tech and air bases, if I’m getting a set of flight range markers, I’d like them to go up to at least 8, if not 9.

      But that’s me.

      -Midnight_Reaper

      We can add 7,8, and 9 if there are people who want them.
      problem is that my guage was only designed to 6 😮

    • RE: WTB HBG Pieces

      @calvinhobbesliker:

      Will the British and American full sets also be restocked this month? I think all the individual pieces I want are in stock, but the cheaper combined sets are not.

      Also, will the A&A 1941 German Tiger 1, Japanese Transport, and American P40 be restocked?

      Full Sets will no longer be restocked
      We restock others on a regular basis.

      I don’t know the rules about placing links, but I can tell you where to find them.  Go the HBG website.  Then the following: Home > HBG Battle Pieces > Battle Pieces By Country > See All Battle Pieces.  On this page you will find it.

    • RE: Spanish civil war- may/must???- Global war 1936

      It is says: One side may claim victory when all opposing forces have been eliminated from the
      six Spanish peninsula land zones (not including overseas islands and colonies).

      Does this mean that nationalists do not have to declare victory if they do not want to or nationalists automatically win as soon as there are no more Republicans regardless of whether they want or not? (there are still Republicans territory)

      Good question, and I think a better intepretation of the rule is that the Spanish Civil War ends at this point, there is no “option” to claim as the word “may” seems to indicate.

      Example: The Republican intentionally make suicide attack to lose all units before the German attack on Russia and theirs aligning of Nationalists and Republicans. So Spain become Nationalists and they will Align with Germany at the
      end of combat phase if the Axis have possession of either London or both Gibraltar and the Suez Canal. One strategy I have seen is the Germans stall the war out so that both sides Align and as soon s they do the Germans whack Gibraltar from Spain.  Certainly viable although later in the game Spain is the first place hit by the US or Britain.

      @Ben_D:

      Is it just me or did the French set just slip under the radar without anyone noticing?  Of all the sets HBG had on the go, the French one was the best one; from an economic perspective especially.  I don’t understand why they produce obscure/fringe-type units that very few people will be interested in, such as Sea Planes when they can produce a set that can replace several thousand pieces.  The interest is there for it, I’ve asked around.  I don’t get it…

      We are working on a complete set. We showed it on our Facebook Page.

      @GeneralHandGrenade:

      I made a couple of videos on how to play Amerika if you’re interested. I made up some player aides as well if you’re new to the game. They are in the description box of the video and you can download them for free.
