Re: Field Marshal Games Pieces Project Discussion thread

FMG, Can’t wait to see the aircraft pieces. I’m salivating over here.

You never answered my question about the infantry pieces, Are they going to be two-toned?

Per FMG
The weapons are painted white on these sculpts to show contrast. (Actual units will be all brown colour including base)

Italian inf look great!!  :-D

IMHO, the poses’ similarity would diminish with a head-on pic. In RL, I think the infanteer with the M38 and the striding pose will look sufficiently different from the other one’s squared stance.

Thank you for your post!  That is correct.  They are in different poses with different weapons.  In RL you will be able to distinguish them more clearly.

After taking a few more looks, I’m starting to see what you mean. I think they will be different enough. Hopefully the others are easier to tell apart though.

Very worth repeating here, that the pieces look great FMG and I look forward to seeing the rest and especially to handing over my money to see many of them show up at my door.
:-D :-o :roll:

Okay I had to go back and look. My question was answered before I even asked. Thanks johnnymarr.

@Variable:

hmm yeah if the SOP is differentiation primarily thru one dude having an SMG and one having a rifle, I could see the PPSh - even with the drum mag - posing a similar problem.

I don’t see any new pictures here. I was just hoping.

FMG - will you make a Tactical Bomber ?

I miss it in your list.

These sculpts are great. The stance and weapons are different, but you’ll have to take a second look to differentiate. I have to agree with the others it might have been better to have the weapons at different positions (rifle at eve, machine gun at waist). Then carry that through with all powers, so you can tell at just a glance which is inf, and which is special forces. It is probably too late for the Italians, but maybe keep in mind for the others. Looking forward for the completed project.

Yes, we are making a Tac Bomber for each nation.

FMG - re your newest thread related to this, I will pre-order at least two sets.  I got on your mailing list when I bought your dice - I guess that is how we will be notified of when we can order (if we don’t see it here)?

That is correct.  We will send out a Newsletter whenever we have a product release.  We will also keep the community here up to date.

AAA.org will be the #1 place to find updates and information!

Thanks

Excellent!  These look fantastic!  I’ve mentally committed to two sets for certain, very likely 3.  Will pre-order as soon as the opportunity presents itself.  Thank you so much for all your hard work on this, and please keep up the great work!

LOVE the look of the new site guys! Great job. One suggestion… Can you make it so if the mouse is over a product, it doesn’t scroll to the next pic. I like to stare for long periods of time at your dice, towers, games, etc. and the pics change too fast. Thanks.

I will definitely buy a set of these pieces. Is there a link to a pre-order page for these?

Not yet. They will be posting that info on this thread when it’s available. Probably not until at least summer though. Also, if you buy something from them before then (the dice are awesome), sign up for the email updates. They will send you info on it then as well.

If it hasn’t already been suggested; chinese infantry and artillery?
will you have Anzac and french units as well?
