It depends on what “work” means – in other words, on whether players would consider a Kursk scenario appealing. Conceptually, Kursk would be similar to A&A D-Day (minus the water) in the sense that the battle was fundamentally a frontal assault on a heavily-defended static position, and similar to A&A Battle of the Bulge in the sense that it would involve ground forces driving into enemy lines, but different from both games in the sense that from the German point of view Kursk was a pincer movement aimed at pinching off a salient, and that from the Russian point of view it was a two-stage offensive-defensive battle. Personally I think it has good potential to make an interesting game, if it’s designed properly.

Hey FMG thanks for the update. Stoked about these pieces. Glad to hear the process will speed up. Hopefully the new factory will be a great step forward for you and your company.

USA is stopped just short of the mould. To be honest… the GERMANY and DICE fiasco with this factory has set us back financialy. We were unable or willing to send MORE money to this factory when these two projects were still outstanding.
I am very sure sales of GERMANY will solve the money issue, and the NEW factory will be able to complete USA in record time considering we already have all the sculpts.
Any pics of the USA sculpts?

FMG@ the factory: can you please have these done in lees than 1 month…
FACTORY: F YOU! we’ll do them when we feel like it! -
How about waving my hand like a Jedi you think that might work?
-
Yavid, I think if you scroll through the various topics that HBG has laid out (Russia, France, etc), you will see that he is making most of your suggestions.

Does anyone know if you can buy FMG Italian units in a european store??
I would order them from the US but then I would risk coustoms intercepting the package and that will add an additional 30-50$ to the order which is simply more than I am willing to pay :-) -
I don’t believe so, no. I am in the UK and I don’t know of anywhere that sells FMG Combat Units - or believe me, I would buy from the store and save tons on postage costs! I ordered my Italy CUs from FMG overseas and they took a good while to arrive due to interception by customs. But they arrived in good condition eventually. :-)

That was the last update from factory. Still waiting on News.
-
one week?
-
2 days to go hoping and praying Jeremy gets some good news.
-
dont want to be pesimistic but I think by now FMG should have some news about it. Is it still the old factory that is making this set? I would be very surprised if we get the news on Mon that are ready to be shipped. On the other hand I do like surprises lol
-
I would not be at all surprised at this point if nothing is said until they’re in his hands ready to ship. Remember, he did that with the new dice! ;)
I’m not sure which factory is doing this set at this point. It may be possible that they were able to pull the molds from the old factory before they had the chance to run them (which of course would cause a small extra delay but hopefully be better in the long run).
It saves all the “but you said they would be here today!” too.
-
Well, you know what they say: no news is good news. :-)
But is it? :?
-
Any News on the German’s? Pictures or Date of Release?
Thanks
Can’t wait to get them.
