@thrasher1 Our group plays China at War, Turkey at War, Fighting Railways, and Diplomacy. We have played others, but those 4 are our favorites. Diplomacy is starting to wear out it’s welcome a bit, as far as I’m concerned. It adds a lot of fun to the game, but it heavily favors the Allies. Some games it can really swing things.
New Expansion Packs for Global?

Guys,
––I’ll repeat my oft-said phrase,…“Three cheers for Historical Board Gaming”! They supply QUALITY items for all of us ‘A&A addicts’ to get our ‘fix’ with. :-D

So now that we know about the new expansions, how many of each set, is everyone buying? I want to get at least 3 of everything. That way I will have enough for any conflict on the game board. :-D

Personally it will all depend on what is in each set. I usually like to have at least ten of each unit sometimes twenty of each color.
I don’t have an HBG Global map and use thier custom units for my own HRs and variants.

That makes sense. For Island Warfare, I will probably by 3 sets of it because I think I know most of the pieces HBG is going to offer in it, since they have advertised it enough.
-
Yeah John 3 sounds about right.
The new Japanese pieces are perfect in quantity composition of units so I’ve been ordering whole sets of those rather than a lot of singles like I’ve done in the past. The second set I might cherry pick once they become available as singles, but whole sets are such a good deal I almost would rather have extra units I don’t like as much.
-
Now when the Romanian/Hungary Minors set comes out, I might not buy as much. I will wait and see what is in the set first and make my decision then. Like you said, take one set at a time.

I’ll probably buy them just to have them. They’re not a must have for me though, the current Axis minors sets are perfectly suitable to me right now. However I love HBG’s stuff and end up liking stuff I didn’t think I’d like as much.
As of yet I want the UK and French sets that are in production really bad.
-
Yes, I want those as well. I also missed out on the Russian set, so I’ve got to get it as well. Doug says, they’ll be restocked soon. I hope so! Anyway, it is great that HBG is only 3 hours from me. I can get things delivered in 2 days tops. It is so nice to be that close to the company and Doug is the best. :-)
-
Ohh yeah. They are fast. I live in Oregon and I usually only have to wait about three days!
-
You live in Oregon? I would have expected 5 days. That is pretty good because I live in next door, in Texas. Wow, that is awesome that you get it that fast!
-
Three days shipping. Four days if you include the day the order was placed. Either way these guys are supersonic at getting it to your mail box LOL.
-
Wow, that is really unbelievable. Well cheers to us both for getting them that quick! :-D

If there is going to be a zombie set, how about a flying saucer/foo fighter set. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foo_fighter
