@general-6-stars I have a physical map that I have made. It’s mostly rules i am trying to develop. Thanks for showing me your map.

@ FMG - Sounds good to me; it makes sense for unit types to vary among nations. You don’t have to rush to post the updated list if you’re not ready, although I for one am quite interested in seeing it. 8-)

@i:
wait you wont plastic minorIC majorIC NB and AB what would they look like?
i think card board is good because you can put guys on it saves room.If you want cardboard, then use the cardboard crap that WOTC has already provided.

@Imperious:
yes that makes alot of sence. The Soviets don’t need many naval units…just the minimum, but more land units.
I would think getting the FMG Italians for sale before AAE40 comes out should be a priority. The only Italian unit in AAE40 will be infantry. WOTC is actually moving backwards because the Italian tank was not ready in time for printing.
We are pushing the sculptors and the factory as hard as we can to get the Italians ready for release.
Problem is they are going into their “Holiday” for two weeks now… We will release the Italians ASAP, hopefully that will fund the remainder for the project.

Any guess on price yet for those Italians? Ballpark?
-
I will wait until the complete set is available.

We are going to Do JAPAN following ITALY.
I can’t discuss price yet as I am not sure what my total cost will be once complete. I think it is going to be more than the $60 I guesstemated a year a go….

A wise and natural choice to go Japan next because of the lack of tac-bombers in the 1940 games, and Italy first since they will just have the infantry sculpts unique.
What the third nation will be is harder to guess perhaps…… ;)

Will the “more than $60”* be for the entire set of all countries or will it be “more then $60”* for each country individually? Regardless I will be getting at least one set if not more.
*Used because the price isn’t known yet.

It’s 60+++ for each nation. Remeber it’s alot of pieces, and made in better quality. Perhaps they will prize the nations differently, for instance France with a smaller pack, or a combined France/China package.

Actually, in the project thread (dedicated solely to updates and not our aimless banter) it states that they’re hoping to do it for $60 for the complete set, not per country.
So even if it is more … definately worth considering for the quality!

The destroyer prototype is ready. FMG will upload the image shortly.
It looks great.

This man is correct. The entire cost will be for the whole set. We will sell them individually as they are released. The price can not be 100% determined at this time as the cost of the project has not been defined yet.
We will make it as affordable as possible, leaving a modest profit for investment in other cool products (That is how all our products have worked, community support on one has lead to another). As this project has expanded in scope since its inception due to community involvement and requests… and things that just HAVE TO BE done… the final cost will reflect this.
In the end, regardless… we aim to make the DEFINITIVE set. One time purchase for endless use and expansions in future.

A bit of an odd request but, could you post a pic of all the naval pieces next to each other? I’d like a comparison similar to the infantry pic you did. Thanks FMG, looking great!

I can get this for you once I have the samples in my hand. These are all individual pictures from the factory.

Understood and appreciated.

Thanks for the clarifying. I was just thinking about how much money it was going to cost to get this all done and thinking that if it was $60ish for an entire set for the six countries, that would make it $10ish for an individual country and that just didn’t seem right.
Once again, just let me reiterate what everyone else on this board has said by saying Thank you FMG! I have a set of the dice and they are great. They let us stop using our “cursed” dice, don’t ask.
-
Maybe FMG will make a combined set of dice and playing pieces. Please.
