Hopefully they are going to make their own AA games?

If they do would you be interested in helping?
-
Yes. Unreservedly. No compensation at all would be great with me.
EDIT: French pieces - cut or still not cut?
-
Helping in what way? Playtesting?

I still have to make cad models for them. And I need to get you the size of the current Hotchkiss.
Still trying to catch up after GenCon. -
Helping in what way? Playtesting?
If the funds are there and I reproduce the tanks in a different size then you guys can tell me what to do. Then I shouldn’t have to listen to the echo of complants. :wink:
Then if we design new product, play testers get there copies free. :-D
On a different note. I see FMG is a site Sponsor. Hey Imp Leader would you add more sponsors?
-
Perfect - I think you have a golden opportunity here with a proven distributor network and a dedicated fanbase to make this project a great seller. Feel free to PM me at anytime, and I can’t wait to see (in scale) French pieces!

I think so. PM djensen for this.
-
No complaints here.
You can add me to the list of those willing to playtest.
-
I’m more than willing to playtest any game/game components you produce. Plus I will attempt to find other uses for your products.
-
I checked the cad model and the French Hitchkiss is 20mm long
Japan’s CHI_HA is 28mm long and the Kyo-Go is 22mm long will be shoot Friday this week.
-
It’s relatively simple to scale down the Hotchkiss to 17mm, right? Let us know when you are cutting the French molds!
-
Japan’s CHI_HA is 28mm long
Jack,
This is too long. The maximum variation from the smallest tank to the largest should be no greater than say + or - 5 MM from standard AA sizes.
The shape and the color of the tank easily distinguishes the type. People who play these games know exactly the model tank it is and know its history. To model this “heavy tank” by making them twice the size as the others makes them unplayable. These are not supposed to be in scale, but playable in wargames. People who play GHQ and get bent out of shape because the tanks are not correct in some manner are the clear minority of your customers. The people who will support your product are using them with small maps and they need to stay small and compatible with other pieces.
And this is not a complaint it is a fact to help you make the most money on your investment.
-
Imp,
I think Japan is already cut (Jack, correct me if I’m wrong). However, the French aren’t cut yet.

Not everyone knows. I believe you get a dive bomber for a fighter from WotC in A&A.

That is correct and were shooting them Thursday.
-
That’s WotC - not the players! And we certainly howled at that decision.
-
Jack - when do you think the French & Hungarian units will be cut? And what size do you have the two Hungarian tanks at?
-
well i buy 2 sprues of each no matter. Everyone should support jack’s efforts no matter what. At least you get something you can use.
-

Here is my dilemma. If I change the scale for the last 3 countries the tanks will not look right with the first 5 already made. Hmmmmmm
Imp Leader is coming around all I had to do was send him a couple hundred buckaroos. :wink:
I’m still waiting for one of you guys to write up and publish new rules for the new infantry units. :-D
Better hurry before to many more are turned into pillboxes. :-(
