@Midnight_Reaper well, i use the 3 pieces of the first image, they serve me well, for that they are.
Now, the system and the mechanics of the game are made for a fast gameplay, and map and combat are more a -ww2 in europe- theme or abstraction, instant of a true 100% historical simulation.
Yes, random dice can by a problem some times, but rock-paper-scissors system can minimice the dice factor. And there are some post-production official optional rules and ideas, i find in the forums, to engance gameplay.
Wen i playtest all options, i can put here, if you want to know, my full opinion on the game.
Bonding AA pieces?
-
Anybody know what kind of plastic is used for axis and allies pieces? (I’m trying to find a glue that will bond pieces to an acrylic base) Super glue and model glue don’t work that well.
-
Hi, I do not know the type of plastic used on the sculpt but JB Weld makes a plastic weld that works on most things. It sets in 5 min and cures in an hour. I have never used this on sculpts however.
-
I know exactly what you mean. I tried to glue artillery to infantry bases with super glue. It worked to an extent but I have some that didn’t hold or stick well.
-
Have you tried a hot glue gun?
-
Hot glue is more for fabric - I’m wanting something that will actually meld the two together - like model cement does with models. I ordered some JB Weld - will let you know the results.
-
I’m not 100% sure, but based on the softness and flexibility, I believe they’re made out of polyethylene (LDPE or HDPE). A notoriously difficult material to glue to. (Same plastic super glue bottles are made out of)
Scotch Weld DP 8010 works with polyethylene, but it’s expensive.
Superglues, gorilla glue and pvc glue, won’t work that well.
For a more mechanical hold, you could try roughing the surface with sandpaper.
Good Luck! :-)

Double-faced tape might be an option.

This looks like a job for duct tape.

E6000 will glue anything.
