What the deuce will AntiAircraft Artillery be?


  • Is the new AAA unit a new mold or cardboard?

    I guess the big news here is they are 5 new molds. Each country gets their own. I will let DJensen show you all the pics that he took when he’s ready.

    Does this mean five new anti-aircraft artillery sculpts in addition to the five other new sculpts (UK artillery, submarine & destroyer units; German artillery; and a Russian submarine) already announced?

    That’s correct.

    does that mean each nation has a different mold for AA artillery? If so what are the molds? And does the game still have the old AA gun or is it just AA artillery?


  • Each country has their own AAA piece - it is not a cardboard chit. The ICs, however, ARE cardboard chits - but we just used existing IC pieces.

    IIRC, each country has a slightly different look for their AAA piece - and, yes the other pieces in some cases ARE different - most notably the artillery pieces.

    Correct. Each nation has it’s own mold for AA artillery. There is no longer just an AA gun. Factories have built in AAA as part of the rules. I will list the sculpts later when I’m home.

    I don’t know if it would fit under AAA or regular artilary but I’d love to know if there is a katusha sculpt.

    There is not, but HBG is making one.

    HBG is doing a wonderful job of providing the missing mech artillery piece for each power.  Much appreciated.

    The Katyusha would fit more in the role of self-propelled artillery than anything else. By the way, I’ve seen the new Russian sculpts at HBG.com. They all look fantastic and the Katyusha is really cool.
