allworkandnoclay,
I have roughly read all posts, and of course seen all pictures you have posted, very well done, if you’re the only man in the world who does this and has the time for AA piece’s…maybe you can do the NEXT deluxe edition LH does in AA…or leave it upto the others who have also done the same hard work…!
However, not to knock the wind out of your sails, when playing the game, a task I have found annoying is placing the fighters on the aircraft carriers, maybe clumsy hands!
When I had done using the strip wheel magnet form from Canadian Tire, or a Staples store, when AA50 came out ( thinking this was the last ever board!! How wrong was I! ), I fixed used the magnets to sticky side to the bottom of the planes and on the AC strip on runway, so they would connect and not fall off.
I also for the transporters, fixed a magnet strip under the transporter long enough outwards to hold upto two units, so the tanks, infantry, aa gun ( days when it wasn’t a cardboard cut out piece! ), artillery could be on the transporter when transporting units.
Have you thought about adding this aspect when you were painting, a device that would work similar to what I did?
Sala…waiting for the final Italians! ( hope Peru was fun and amazing )
