FRANCE and ANZAC COMBAT DICE - HELP us design them!
-
Not sure if we will. With all the projects we have going right now this MIGHT be the completion of the COMBAT DICE line.
Not sure if there is enough interest but I would be willing to bet that there would be enough interest to create an OOB Olive USA dice along with OOB Olive USA Combat Units. This might be especially true considering HBG’s USA sets which will be olive. Just a thought. Personally I hope for a facility set sooner than later as AAG40 is seriously lacking in this regard. But I digress…

Hi
Is it still possible to order the Classic Combat Dice Set?, I can only find Combat Dice Elite Set.
Does that mean the Classic Dice Set + France and Anzac?
The Classic Combat Dice Set do have the Grey Germany Dice?, but the new German Elite Dice is Black? What I want to buy/order is the Classic Combat Dice Set with Grey German Dice, and the new Elite Set with France, Anzac, Canada and German Elite Dice, the black one. -

http://www.fieldmarshalgames.com/product/field-marshal-combat-dice/The standard set if added to cart is CLASSIC. You need to check the box and add $10 to make it ELITE.
You can purchase the new nations (including BLACK GERMANY) here individually:

Hi
Ok, but if you check the box to make the classic set an elite set, does this mean that the german dice will be black, elite dice or grey, classic dice, or maybe both? Then it seems I misunderstood it, I ordered one Classic Set and one German Elite + Canada dice Set. I thought that check the box meant it would include France + Anzac and the original Classic Set.
Is there a way to change this? I ordered as a guest, and I don’t won’t 12 Black German Combat Dice, I want 6 Grey Classic and 6 Black Elite German Dice. -
CLASSIC SET is GREY
ELITE SET IS BLACKPlease see pictures

At least you could offer the option to buy only the German Grey dice to. -
Please PM me with your order number. I can adjust.

Thanks ! -

Yes, Coach and I are discussing this now.

Sweet elite German dice. :-D

Ironic, don’t you think…two companies that make pieces for a game called Axis&Allies, based on a world war partially caused by strategic alliances, allying together…haha. Nice cooperation you guys…all kidding aside. :-D
-
It seems that right now I can’t order the full ELITE dice set, when will this be available again?
Also, is there still a way to order a full red-coloured replacement set for the USSR (AAE40 - it’s almost impossible to tell USSR and Italy apart under artificial light)?
-
The only pieces that have ever been red have been the Japanese in Pacific 2001. You’d have to find those pieces and designate them “Russian” unless Coach and Jeremy are going to make the Russian pieces match the Field Marshall Russian Dice which do look nice and red.

If you go to Historical Board Gaming and check under Axis & Allies Pieces, Europe 1999, click on “Soviet Union, Maroon”. Some issues of the Europe game had Soviet pieces in a dark red color, what I call burgandy and is very close to the color of FMG’s Soviet Combat Dice. You will find this color of Soviet Pieces there. You can buy them individually. If you are wanting to get a large amount of them, you could contact Coach and perhaps he could work out some sort of deal with you. Just remember that these pieces are out of print now so they are hard to come by.
Also, there will be some differences between these pieces and the current sets. Since Europe came out in 1999, this was before WOTC added Cruisers, Tac Bombers and Mechanized Infantry to the games so there will not be any of those pieces available in the burgandy color. Also, the destroyer and battleship will be the older versions which are basically copies of British units (Johnston class Destroyer, Royal Oak class Battleship).
Another note: I believe when FMG makes it’s Soviet Union set, they intend on using the burgandy color to match their Combat Dice. The Soviet Union set from FMG will be done later next year (2012) if you simply want to wait for them. -
Since Fmg is doing the elite black german dice I wonder if there will be other second colours coming for other countries . Olive die for USA, Mustard yellow for Japan with mustard pieces, Italy white or light green. Just a thought.

Why do you want white for Italy? White is neutral color. Now, I have seen some people use a light green for Italy, namely that guy who has a thread on repairing the “B” turret on the FMG Italian Battleship.
I really doubt we will see a mustard color for Japan (although I really like the idea). The OOB pieces and FMG combat dice are that burnt orange color so I would imagine the FMG Japan sets will be too.
FMG is making their USA sets in the dark green color like their USA combat dice. There was some talk a while back that FMG might offer the USA combat units in Olive as well to match OOB. Don’t know if they will bother with making Olive combat dice for USA or not. Would be pretty cool looking, and one more thing for me to buy (like I don’t have enough already). -

-
Olive Green US combat dice instead of dark green (to match OOB olive)
-
Italy dice with the correct Italian roundel as opposed to the Iranian one from OOB
-
UK dice with the SEAC blue/blue roundel for India
-
Red dice with communist Chinese roundel from HBG
As it is, I’m buying dark green US pieces to match the FMG dark green (OK I suppose, but just prefer olive - that’s all). There are none of the other dice yet, and these would all be sweet (ESPECIALLY the SEAC/India dice)!
STOKED about Canada, ANZAC, & France as it is!

Hey DFWSupertrooper,
I could agree with you on all but one – the Italian combat dice. I don’t want them to use the “correct” roundel. I like the green outer edge with the red dot in the center. Yeah, I know people have pointed out that it is actually the roundel for Iran, but really, Iran wasn’t one of the big powers of WW2. In fact, it wasn’t even Iran back then, it was still Persia. Except for them being forced to accept Soviet troops occupying their soil to prevent any Axis incursion and the Lend Lease supplies passing through to Russia, Iran/Persia really wasn’t a part of the war.
Also, I personally just like that roundel better. I think it looks better. The “correct” Italian roundel looks weird to me. A&A Miniatures used it in one of their naval sets on the stat cards and it was odd looking. With the next set and every one since, they went back to the OOB Italian roundel. I’m guessing more people wanted that one.
One other thing to consider, if you use the roundel with the red outer edge and green dot in the center, it will look awfully close to the French roundel, red outer edge with blue dot in the middle. Granted, I don’t think anyone would confuse a French territory for an Italian territory or visa versa, but I also don’t think anyone will confuse Italian territories for Iranian territories.
Of course, maybe you aren’t worried as much about historical accuracy as it is more a personal preference thing for you. In that case, I guess we will just have to agree to disagree. Hopefully, for both our sakes, if FMG ever decides to go with the “correct” Italian roundel on future Italian combat dice orders, perhaps they will simply keep both versions for whomever wants them. I know that HBG offers his Invasion Italy maps with all three roundel choices; OOB, correct, facist. -

Im fine with it on the normal game but if I did a 1939 version with minor powers including the Pro ally neutrals, Iran comes into play (and I think actually by 1940 they were Iran). At any rate I completely agree FMG should offer both kinds.
