I mentionned the OOB ways in beginning of my last post.
Re: Field Marshal Games Pieces Project Discussion thread

Hi Jeremy, it’s been nearly six weeks since we last heard from you and I think we’ve all been very patient here, but can you please provide us with an update on the production of Germany Combat Units? Many thanks.
-
At least an estimated date of arrival
-
I have a feeling we are going to get some great news or bad news. Fmg is either going to post a TON of info on the new units or say something went wrong. I must say the silence is deafening right now. Makes me wonder if something went wrong again with the factory.

Guys, RELAX
He’s in the middle of selling his house - etc.
Chill out.

Sorry guys, it’s just that my heart skips a beat whenever I see there’s been a new post added to this thread! :oops:

Selling his house?
I agree with Lozmoid on this. We just want some information on the progress, good or bad. That’s what I liked when we were still doing Italy. Jeremy kept us informed every step of the way. Yeah, I know there were some jerk-wads that pissed and moaned every time there was a delay but I personally appreciated being kept in the loop and tried to support Jeremy and FMG as much as I could.
Now that we are on Germany, things seem different to me. It’s like we have these long stretches with no info at all. His last post was very cryptic “Things ARE moving”. That’s not information, it’s just a vague statement.
One of the things I really liked about being a part of this project was the continuous flow of information to us. Frankly, I don’t like the way this is being handle now. -
Yes, his house is up for sale. Took a lot of time and effort out of his days to get the thing ready to sell so that accounts for a huge part of the silence.
Then there’s FMGC2012 coming up in 4 short weeks with a lot of preparation going on for that. Along with dealing with the development for The Conflict (ww1 game) and his regular full time job … things have been pretty damn hectic for him lately!
Oh yeah, and as Knp pointed out … the people who made things miserable for FMG during the Italy process. I really wouldn’t want to keep giving information on a regular basis only to be whined at constantly for things out of my control.
Speaking of FMGC2012 … I have a feeling we may see the official release of German combat units then. :)

I agree with Rorschach. The problem Jeremy kept running into when he gave us periodic updates on the Italian pieces went like this:
-
The factory would give Jeremy a new update or a new projection on the work they were doing.
-
Jeremy would pass this information along to us.
-
People would get excited about the new information.
-
The factory would then miss another deadline or run into an unexpected problem which invalidated the information they had initially given to Jeremy.
-
Jeremy would pass the bad news along to us.
-
People would get mad at Jeremy, or at least would be frustrated or disappointed.
Since Jeremy is dealing with the same factory for the production of the German pieces, I can certainly understand why Jeremy would be reluctant to pass along to us the information they give him, since last time it usually turned out to be wrong and Jeremy ended up unjustly receiving the flak for it.

I am very sorry for my silence. It is true I am selling and buying a home - If any of you have done this before you know what I am going through.
I would like to say there is a “possibility” That COMBAT UNITS: GERMANY will be released at FMGC.
To be 100% open here is a cut-n-paste from my recent update from my Agent. (We have now hired an Agent from HK to nagg these guys EVERYDAY for us… yeah it got that bad!)
_"Re: So was there any News?

And you guys wonder why Larry under represents China in his games…
-
Thank you so much for that information, Jeremy. It is appreciated. Now I can go out and enjoy my weekend! :wink:

And you guys wonder why Larry under represents China in his games…
Yes, one of China’s problems at the time of WWII is that it wasn’t yet heavily industrialized. China has since become a major industrial power, but it sounds like the factory Jeremy is using is still stuck back in the 1940s.

Right now we are looking at a MARCH Release date.
I will update you as soon as I have all the details
-
March or April FMG? I hope its not March 2013 lol
-
Right now we are looking at a MARCH Release date.
We’re already in April, so I assume this is a typo and that you mean MAY (in other words May 2012 rather than March 2013).

Yes, sorry. MAY… I was so excited I messed it up.
Thanks

This great news!

I hate to ask but what about USA? I know you said you were going to another factory. It seemed you were pretty close on them with multiple sculpts done. Really looking forward to Germany and the next countries to come. Thanks for keeping in touch with us and letting us know the process it gives us something to look forward to.
