Re: Field Marshal Games Pieces Project Discussion thread

Could it be that the factory is bumping you in order to do bigger orders?
That is exactly what I have been thinking! I just wish that there was some way that I could help you Jeremy.

Hey Jeremy, too bad your last name isn’t Soprano. Then maybe you could send Paulie and Sylvio over to “talk” to the factory manager. That would get things moving, heh heh.

Field Marshal, really like the pieces for Italy, will be buying the sets as you put them out :-)
on a side question, what map is that that the Italian pieces are displayed on?

I’m going to pre-order at least 3 sets of Italians very soon! Be ready to ship them to… Italy!

Coach, I saw your map for invasion of Italy, I like it, but I can’t really buy it, for two reasons: First, it looks like the maps we used to see everyday in junior school, second, I don’t like being invaded by anglo-americans :lol:
J/K !

I think the proper term is liberated by Anglo-Americans.
You were invaded by the Germans - liberated by the Allies. Little bit of a difference :-)

I meant no harm in the title of the map. Like reloader said, invasion was by the Germans.
I always try to keep good taste on my games and website. The banners I post on the top of my site hopefully represent a proud nation whether it was Axis or Allies. I try to pick pictures that you can be proud of and is in good taste. The Americans during WWII were a very a very rich and blessed nation that was able to help many nations beat the dictators of that period. Us Americans are very proud of what we accomplished in WWII but also realize that many nations did what they could to help in all ways to accomplish the same goals. Please realize that all free nations fight for basically the same reasons, and help each other out. France came to our aid during American Revolution and so on. Italy can be proud of their nation as well as others during WW2. -

Noll, It’s not the best map ever, but for my first map and not having the resources that a company like WoC have, I think It looks really good. The Invasion of Italy is referring to the Allies having to invade Italy and draw the Germans into southern Europe so there could be an Normandy landing the following year. I feel on this forum alot of people are too sensative and wear their feelings on their sleeves……Buy the map and play the game, you will like it!!

I think the term “invasion”, especially in the title of HBG’s “Invasion of Italy” game, is more of a strictly military term rather than a political one. Yes, the British and Americans were there to liberate Italy from the Germans and the Facist party, but they had to invade the country to do so. Just like D-Day was an invasion of France with the intention of liberating France from the Germans.
Axis invaded countries to conquer, Allies invaded countries to liberate. -

Axis invaded countries to conquer, Allies invaded countries to liberate.Correct!

Tiger, I like your map! You did an excellent work.
I just said I won’t buy it 'cause being Italian I don’t like to invade my own country :)And no, I don’t feel the Allies liberated Italy, I feel they won the war! So “Invasion of Italy” is a perfect title!
Give me Invasion of Greece and I will buy that :-D

I blame the Chinese, they have too many holydays

My opinion is that if we keep the same company, we will never be able to finish the project. And I dont want anybody saying that its the first set, it always takes longer, cause we are wayyyy past this point. Just my 2 cents.

This thread is about FMG pieces, not Italian politics of 1921-43.
