AXIS & ALLIES DICE - Field Marshal Games

[Marquis]

OK I just wanted to put my review of these dice up here too -

It took them 6 days to reach me - it looks like they were shipped from Buffalo NY and I’m in Duluth MN so you west coasters add a few more days.

The dice are just as Imperial Leader says - very high quality.  They are full size, glossy and with very, very good color that should match the pieces nicely.

The dice bag is a nice touch.

I did think the price was a bit steep but I still bought 3 sets……

Overall they are:

Highly recomended!  A cool addition to any Axis & Allies board game.

I second that! Excellent dice! I am glad I got them!

[Imperious Leader]

yes they kick ass. Its a no brainer. Everybody has got to get AA50 and these dice to complete the look.

pimp it!

Hey everyone, thoes426 here it’s been a long long time since my last posting here, heck i even had to create a new screen name just to post again! :roll:

I ordered a set of these dice too based on Imp. Leaders recommendation and as always he’s dead on with his assesment of them, they are great and a must have for anyone claiming to be a Axis and Allies fan.

Can’t wait for the Italian, French and Chinnese dice to be produced!

Imp. Leader-
I finaly took a vacation, i’ve been working 7 days a week for the last 13 months and decided to take off and relax.
Going to meet AxisNdallas(Aaron) on Wednesday to go to a gaming convention in Austin and get in some games of A&A whatever! :-D
I’ll try my best to check in at least once a week from here on out and try to not be such a recluse.
p.s. thanks for all your personal e-mails over the years, you’ve really been to kind with your sharing of information and game ideas!

I hope one day myself and Aaron can come see you and get in a game or two.
take care,
Peter aka Thoes426, pthoes426, etc. :-P

[Imperious Leader]

ok take care. Have Aaron show you his new 7,000 plane collection in AA scale.

A few sets of these are atop my wishlist this year. I will hopefully be ordering soon enough. Thanks for keeping us informed :-)

I just recieved my set of dice in the mail. They look awesome. Thanks for a great professional looking product. These dice are worth every penny. Keep up the good work field marshal.

[crsluggo]

I love the dice! I will definitely order a set of them.

[FieldMarshalGames]

David Jensen has written an Article on the Axis & Allies Dice and his pictures look awesome!

Thanks

[Krupp Steel]

Ordered 2 COMPLETE sets a few minutes ago, can’t wait! :mrgreen:

[Krupp Steel]

Ordered my 2 sets on Sunday November 16, recieved them Tuesday November 18 8-)

They are truly impressive, thanks FMG for such a great product.

[Imperious Leader]

somebody should post these dice with the new game. Thats would prove a good move.

@Imperious:

Don’t worry… we will!  Can’t wait to start on the CHINA & ITALY dice also…  I will post pics once we have prototype.

[FieldMarshalGames]

Due to popular demand we have started to design the ITALY and CHINA dice!  I will start a new thread soon with pictures of what we have so far… So everyone here can comment and have your say before we go into production.

[Imperious Leader]

Thats good.

Three quick questions …

When do you think you will be able to bring the 7 country combo (Rus,Ger,UK,Ity,Chi,Jap,US) to market?

Will you let folks that got the 5 country combo pick up the 2 new sets for the price difference?

Will you be developing a set or Aussie dice for Pacific?  Seems if you are going to make Chinese dice, we should also think about Aussie dice too.

How about Switzerland?  White dice with no spots!

All jokes aside, I think this is a great product at a fair price.  I’m going to buy a set for my son and then post a photo of the dice with our painted pieces.

[FieldMarshalGames]

Thanks for the questions.  I have started another TOPIC on the CHINA ITALY dice dice here at AAA.org.  I have also posted some pictures.

To Answer your questions:

1. We are still in the design process and we will finalize in about a week.  Production is not an easy or cheap process, it will take about 30 days from start to finished product.  I HOPE to have these ready by mid Jan 2009.  There can also be production delays but I will keep you guys posted here.

2. Not only will we offer these dice to those of you that have the original COMBAT DICE but, we will offer them at a discounted special rate to complete your sets.  This is a thanks as your orders of COMBAT DICE are funding this second production run.

3. In the future we will develop more EXPANSION DICE like ANZAC, CANADIAN, FRANCE, AFRIKA CO , and even an Anti-Aircraft die (Thanks IL).  I envision these will be included in some expansions we are working on that will include special rules / Event Cards and extra pieces…  (TOP SECRET NOW)

Thanks!
