Re: Field Marshal Games Pieces Project Discussion thread

On the size square we’re talking about, I think we could comfortably fit the symbol we like with the words “AIR” or “NAVAL” raised like IL is saying. After sleeping on the idea, the hanger may be too ambiguous at this size and we agree that the anchor is a little lame. How about the standard generic top-down airplane for the air base and a generic top-down mini-battleship for the naval base. Again, making it similar to the ones on the task force piece. Light grey in color I guess?
-
How about just a crisscrossed( hourglass shaped) runway for the airbase
and some docks for the naval base. -
My sculpt guy is working on the Airfield and Naval Base idea right now (While waiting for the factory to finish the other samples). We will go for something simple like the original AAA factories… instantly recognizable but not to complicated.
Anything is better for a token!
We will also include two types of Factories in the set. With new designs to match the AirField and Naval Base.

FMG, i can imagine that their are still alot of variables involved but do you have any sort of timescale on when this awesomeness will be released? do you think early summer perhaps?
thx

What I have learned from doing COMBAT DICE and CONNECT HEX is that you should never announce a release date. Whatever the factory tells you… add a few months. We have given them a Jan 1st deadline to have all of ITALY completed. After that I am hoping to have one more nation a month.
So if you have seven nations (France included) and one extra mould for the “extras” that is eight months. Of course this could be sooner as the factory should be able to do the other seven moulds faster than the first.
We are in the second last stage of this project. The laying down of the final moulds. Once this is complete I will have REAL physical samples to show you all and will be able to give you a production timeline.
My business partner who is working on this daily tells me 100% this will be complete in 2010… We are aiming for summer. I would like to have this shipping just after the release of AAE40.

Fantastic!

I worship you!

Yes, this is amazing.

Can only add that my anticipation is of the level that it makes me jittery. :-o

OMG I just found this project/thread and read through 51 pages. I’ve been looking for updated plastic pieces (sculpts, chips, factories) for my AA games for a really long time! The good thing is i didn’t know about this project prior to last night and I don’t have to wait all those months leading up till now. And thank god I didn’t buy from other places like WOTC or assembling my own from GHQ which would have been extremely costly.
This project is amazing! I will definitely order at least three sets. I can’t wait!

I think they should add marines, because AAP40 didn’t include any like AAP
American should be enough.

Well their will be too infantry types so i am assuming one of them will look like a marine with a flamethower or M1 Carbine.
-
Wow I thought we would just get Italy and then it would be a long wait for the rest. I had no idea the rest would be coming out in monthly intervals.Thank you FMG,

Or let me put it this way : They should include one elite unit for each nation, with a slightly different color. This elite units act as both marines, paratroopers, mountain units and ski-troops.
USA get Marines of course.
UK get Commandoes.
Germany get Fallschirmjaegers (paratroopers)
Japan get Imperial Marines.Russsia got Ski-troops.
-
Just getting back into A7A, and found this thread… PURE fantastic!!! I would definitely order 1, maybe 2 sets.
-
Well well,Razor, what a laugh :-D , the Russians have Skitroops you say, the Finnish infantry had skitroops, not the Russians.

FMG, Any guesstimate on when the “battle box” thing you mentioned earlier might be ready? (Yes, guys, I know Plano gear can get the job done, but since between all the WotC, TT, Xeno & Eagle Games pieces I’m already storing in Plano containers, I’ve already got a mountain of them and have used at least one of everything they make, I think… it would be “totality of awesomeness” to have a container package for all of this “awesomeness” that stands out from the pack as much as it looks as thought the product itself will…)

We will start work on that once we have the pieces finished. We need to know how big and how many compartments it will need for each nation.

No kidding Brain! This is better that the Franklin Mint Civil War chess set!

You like nice chess sets.
I have the Swarovski Chess set and it is beautiful.
