RE: French Set…need help to finalize set.
also i agree with you destroyer/cruiser combo is more important to get out for the first set, since they are actually being used in the game, but it would be nice to see the french capital ships eventually

RE: Next Nation to sculpt at HBG
rider an kinda agree with you it would be cool to see the UK/Canada/South Africa in
OOB tan for UK
Forest green for Canada
maybe Dday blonde for South africaand for anzac/FEC
OOB pewter for anzac
and maybe that revised Sea-foamish green for indian/FEC -
RE: French Set…need help to finalize set.
i think that is the correct order but this thread is about the french pieces

RE: French Set…need help to finalize set.
you know what would be really cool, is if you did one french set in that bluish grey they had for germans in revised. it would be perfect for the peopel who want vichy france and you could mix and match with the revised pieces

RE: Next Nation to sculpt at HBG
one more unit for Australia could be the Phaeton class cruiser

RE: Neutral Negotiations (Updated)
playing with this rule makes one lucky dice roll turn a game around, my friends and i have been doing this for a while. it makes the game more fun for us

RE: Next Nation to sculpt at HBG
Great Britain , Commonwealth, FEC / India sets.
Great Britain, Commonwealth Set : Same pieces, just different colours?
FEC/India Set : Same pieces as GB and Commonwealth, only need different infantry and maybe colour?
Anzac Set : Same pieces as GB and Commonwealth, only need different infantry and colour.Do it this way, should be cost effective and speed up production?
i agree with this except anzac has a couple of of unique units
Sentinel tank
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sentinel_tankCAC Boomerang
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CAC_Boomerangplus to save money it should be 2 different sets the UK/CANADA/South Africa in 3 colors
than the FEC/India/Anzac set in 2 colors -
RE: Next Nation to sculpt at HBG
Ideas for Great Britain, Commonwealth Set : unique sculpts could be
British:
Churchill tank; great heavy tank
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Churchill_tankLight Tank Mk VI: Light tank for the british.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Light_Tank_Mk_VIA British commando unit is needed maybe to represent paratroopers.
HMS Hood: early war battleship
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HMS_Hood_(51)Canada
Ram Mk II it has a unique look to it plus its Canadian
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ram_tankGrizzly I cruiser could double over as British Sherman.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grizzly_I_cruiserMk III helmet Infantry would be a great addition to the UK set. Both the UK and Canadians used it.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mk_III_helmetSouth africa
Marmon-Herrington Armoured Car Mk IV nice unique armored car and unique to south africa
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marmon-Herrington_Armoured_CarThe problem with UK is they are so with there infantry it would be a shame if South African and the Canadians are represented in game
-
RE: Next Nation to sculpt at HBG
for sure Canada needs some unique sculpts and colors, i dont mind South Africa not getting sculpts or colors, but for the FEC set India and anzac are really the only colors needed since India pretty much represents FEC.
-
RE: HBG Japan Supplement Set
but they usually have armored cars or an actual half track, for mechs
-
RE: Next Nation to sculpt at HBG
soo uk wil be broken up with Canada/ south africa/ and UK while the other set is India and anzac?
-
RE: HBG Japan Supplement Set
please no more trucks, thats the main reason i dont buy full sets from HBG. but as long as there isnt to many trucks im happy
-
RE: Neutral Set
i don’t think they are going to do a neutral set for a while they still have other major powers they have to supplement. i think coach said he would do another neutral set if threes enough interest in it. i left a wish list for the next set before
Polish infantry:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Polish_infantry_marching_-2_1939.jpgA generic partisan infantry (something that could fit with maybe Yugoslavian/baltic states feel to it) maybe somthing like this:
http://www.warrelics.eu/forum/military_photos/docs-paper-items-photos-propaganda/114805d1276680810-group-photo-greek-soldiers-1941-lastscan.jpgI know everyone didnt like the Fokker Gi but i think it would look cool as a tac bomber.
Submarine:
either the Dutch K XIV
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/K_XIV_class_submarine
Or the Polish Orzel class Sub
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ORP_Orzeł_(1938)a coastal defense ship
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:HMS_Oden.jpgMedium Tank:
i was thinking maybe the american made dutch semi used Marmon-Harrington MTLS-1GI4 medium tank, it has a neutral looking feel to it
http://forum.valka.cz/attachments/796/mtls_1g14.jpg
its the tank on the rightand another pic; http://www.overvalwagen.com/images/mhbiga4.jpg
Plus would still love to see that PZL p.24 fighter, the P.24 was used my a number of differnt nations through out the war, including Greece, Poland, Bulgaria,Romania, and Turkey

RE: Next Sets from Historical Board Gaming
the new 1941 is less than FMGs set its only supposed to be $30. and im sure coach will have the new pieces from the new A&A game in stock
-
RE: Next Sets from Historical Board Gaming
sanchez brings up a point wizards is also coming out with a tiger, at first i didn’t want to see the tiger out of HBG’s set. but now 2 other companies are making the pieces, i hope you consider keeping the panzers 2,4 instead of the tiger.
-
RE: Next Sets from Historical Board Gaming
it would be really nice to keep the panzer 2 it gives the Germans their true light tank also, i agree with you saying you need to make your pieces vary, thats way to many mech infantry pieces compared to the pieces we want, IMHO i rather see the panzer 4 than the that many mechs
-
RE: Idea: Entrenchment
how about making the entrench token expensive but can be built wherever one of your infantry is. something like 5-6 ipcs, that way people aren’t spamming that many of them, and allowing people to reinforce their guys in places where ICs are not available.
