    Why does a “D-Day” set have Japanese units, for example?

    I think its because the Japanese were there sightseeing, you know, the Louvre and Eiffel Tower make for memorable photos :lol:.


  • What really got me about that set is that the Higgins Boat is a rare. How can you be expected to have D-Day landing when you can’t get a Higgins Boat? It is a cool piece but it is D-Day for goodness sake no Higgins Boats no D-Day.


  • What is the name for the North African set going to be? Is the Desert Fox, Rommel, going to be in this one? Or is he somewhere else. I guess he’s all I know about the North African campaign, except it was primarily English and German units, right?

    Umm, there was this American general known as Patton involved – maybe you’ve heard of him?  :wink:

  • hmmm. . . he does ring a bell.

    I feel like an idiot. Let my newbie-ness show. :-D


  • With the newly modified units coming out in the starter pack, what is happening to all of the booster packs that are out?  For example if I want the Contested Skies booster pack, is there a certain one I need to look for so that the pieces look the same as the “new” starter pack?

    @AgentOrange:

    Ahhh, that’s good news.  :-)

    I don’t think I’ll be getting any more sets.  I just cant see going out buying basic units (like the Sherman) all over again just so I can get the new-and-improved sized version.  And I don’t really want to have a mix.  I’m too anal to have a giant Sheman and a baby Sherman in play at the same time.

    The new set has a lot of new stats for the old pieces and it looks like almost all of the vehicles have been repainted.

    David, don’t hold out on us – how do you know this?  Can you post any pictures?  Anything :?


  • My booster case was delayed for various reasons. I was thinking of writing an article that outlines all of the differences.
