    TOO LATE …… :(

    GOING TO HAVE TO MAKE AN MARK ON THE MAP.

    So sorry sir, I should have proofed it before I posted.


  • Don’t feel bad. My map is never totally done - one I had printed just last summer already has corrections and additions on it. Print out stickers and put them on the map - you’re good to go!

    Thanks for the support. I know what you mean. I have a $600 metal map at home that is basically going to get redone.  It seems there always needs to be changes and updates.

    As per request. Here is version (Q). This version has an increased sized Bessarabia and I used the Greek Roundel for Crete.

    I would contact your print company ASAP. I think it is a big difference but in 80% of the games it might not ever be a problem.  The issue is SZ 117 should border the season around Iceland thus making it possible to move from USA east coast to Iceland in 1

    If I add an area from SZ 122 to SZ 117 it should fix the problem.

  • '14 Customizer

    If you erase the line from West side of SZ 123 and move it to the west so that it includes SZ 117. Look at my pictures


  • Got it

    Really nice work in here… :-)

    Thanks again for all the kind comments.

    I wish I had new pieces to paint but HBG isn’t shipping Amerika or the US expansion sets for another 4-6 weeks.

    Our planned annual gaming session is April 2 - 4 so it looks like I will not be able to get them all painted in time.  Its been almost a year since I pre-ordered Amerika set but I really do love HBG’s quality. I just wish they were quicker at distributing them.

    My planned pieces to paint are the following

    Japan

    • Project Z plane (six engines Heavy Bomber)

    • Ha To (Self Propelled Artillery)

    • O-I (Heavy Tanks)

    • Banzai infantry (Elite Infantry with machine guns)

    Germany

    • Gotha (Heavy Bombers)

    • Panther II (Tanks)

    • Maus (Heavy Tanks)

    • SS infantry (Elite Infantry with machine guns)

    UK

    • Gloster Meteor (Jets)

    • Centurion (Heavy Tanks)

    USA

    • P80 Shooting Star (Jets)

    • M43 (Self Propelled Artillery)

    • T28 (Heavy Tanks)

    • Marine infantry (Elite Infantry with machine guns)

    • 155mm M1A1 “Long Tom” (Artillery)

    • Greyhound Armored (Advanced Mech)

    • M4A3 Sherman (Tanks)

    • Pershing (Tanks)

    • South Dakota Class Battleship (Capital Battleship)

    • P-47 Thunderbolt (Fighter)

    I can’t wait too see these pieces painted, but you deserve a break. You have painted a bunch pieces, LOL. :-D

  • '14 Customizer

    Thank you very much John but it will be a huge challenge to produce these pieces.  They should arrive 1 week before our annual gaming session which means I have 1 week to paint them all, lol.

    The Gotha will be last on the list since I already have metal versions of them already painted.  Also the Heavy tanks may also be visited later since they are to be used only if we play with the optional rule of allowing Heavy Tanks as a tech development.

    But no matter what I will eventually paint them all :)

  • '14 Customizer

    Well despite HBG not releasing Amerika I decided to paint some other pieces to use instead at our upcoming annual gaming event.

    USA Hellcat Tanks (instead of the Pershing Tanks)

    USA Greyhound Scout cars (Used for Adv. Mech, metal miniatures from GHQ)

    Japanese SP Artillery (Used as Adv Artillery instead of the Ha To from Amerika set)

    French Biplanes

    More to come in the next 2 weeks before our gaming event.

  • '18 '17 '16 '15 Customizer

    Very cool, Cyanight! Where did you get the French Bi-planes or are those from the British set?

    These are all, well done. :-D

  • '14 Customizer

    Yep, John. They are from the UK set.  :)

  • '18 '17 '16 '15 Customizer

    @cyanight:

    Yep, John. They are from the UK set.  :)

    That is cool! :-D

  • '16 Customizer

    Great pieces Cyanight! My personal favorites are the Hellcats - behind the M10 Wolverine, they’re my favorite tank (destroyer really) of the Americans.

    Cyanight & Others,

    ––Nice looking units!
    ––Although I’m certain that most everyone knows,…I thought it needed to be pointed out that the delay isn’t HBG’s fault,…but more than likely due to the longshoreman’s strike on the west coast ports that are delaying our entire economy at the moment. I’m sure Doug at HBG would like nothing more than to sell these games to us all.

    Again, Nice Work!
    Tall Paul
