Re: Field Marshal Games Pieces Project Discussion thread


  • Why don’t people just wait for these pieces?

    They take time to produce just the perfect set. WOTC can’t do it and they are a huge company that basically messes up every game they produce.

    FMG has always stood by a philosophy of not releasing stuff till its perfect, while WOTC makes games they push out the front door without playtest or the wrong pieces, or some other screw up.

    Instead of getting a refund, order more sets and buy them as Xmas gifts…You people have to support them in any way you can and just let them get the job done.

    Once they mail out the pieces, it will be like gang busters and they will sell out quickly as all the other peeps start buying them up to make other games. Consider them an investment, much like AA50 was. How in the hell can a few measly bucks burn a hole in your pocket that you can’t wait for them?

    They will sell out and you people will have to buy them for 3 times the money on ebay and remember this post. I warned you.

    Hello Jeremy,

    I am willing to substitute Stickman for one or two full set of Italian units at 29.95$ each. Just let me know how I can send you the $ by Paypal. Cheers

    You got that right man!  I for one am glad that I could participate in the Pre-Order.  Okay, so yeah it is taking a while, longer than we first thought.  However, the way I see it, I have already paid my money and now I just have to sit back and wait for them to get here.  I find that very relaxing.  Plus, the anticipation can almost be kind of a high.  Then when they do eventually get here, I will just be plain giddy, as I’m sure many others will be as well.  As for the money itself, I consider it already spent.  In fact, it is kind of good that the Pre-Order was a while back because THAT money really no longer affects me.  It’s not like I need that particular money to pay some bill or buy groceries, I’m making OTHER money to do that.
    It’s like Jeremy said, this is an investment and I am very happy with it.  And, as IL pointed out, all those slow-pokes and naysayers that think “Oh, I don’t need to pre-order.  I’ll just wait till they come out and order them then.” may just be getting a nasty surprise.  A lot of you will be sorely wanting for the new Italian units while those of us that pre-ordered, AND stuck with it, will be enjoying our new, highly detailed, historically accurate Italian combat pieces and combat dice for France and ANZAC.  I’M STILL WITH YOU FMG!


  • the italians are one of the full sets i want from FMG since its one of the sets im willing to through out swap out. i have a question though. if you sell out of pieces will you continue to make more sets?


  • I have a completely unrelated question for Jeremy.  Whenever the Italian units are ready, are those of us who participated in the pre-order investment still going to be able to order the German units as well?  I know Germany is not in production yet but I remember form an earlier post you saying something about pre-ordering or ordering the Germans alongside the Italians.  Thanks and I can’t wait for the Italians and those dice!

    Thanks Guys.  You will have an opportunity to get your pre-orders in ONE LAST TIME, once I have the full set FINISHED PRODUCT in my hands (My set is first to come off the line!)

    I am supposed to get the FINAL SAMPLES (actual completed product) for my final approval on Monday.

    Thanks

    Hi Jeremy,

    Just a quick question to follow up on this.  Do you mean that there will be a final opportunity to pre-order the Italians, or do you mean there will be an opportunity to pre-order the Germans (which is something dadler12 was asking about)?  Thanks in advance for the info.

    As soon as production is complete on the Italians I will open a pre-order.  As for the Germans, given the trouble the Italy pre-order has caused us, I will not be opening that pre-order until the product is going into production.


  • very good idea.


  • i will be taking advantage of the preorder this time


  • Can’t wait to pre-order Germany and US multiple sets. Stick with it FMG I can see the finish line.


  • Question, this may have already been answered in the 100 plus previous posts.  Is FMG goingto allow purchase of these sets after the first production run or is this a limited edition run for these sets.

    All depends on Demand.  If we sell out, we will make more.
