@Brain:

So far all we have seen are Italian pieces. Are you currently working on all of the other nations?

One Nation at a time.  ITALY first, then JAPAN… etc etc.  The Italians are almost complete and the project is picking up pace.

Is it going to take the same amount of time for each of the other nations as it is for Italy?

I’m pretty sure this was covered a billion pages back.  hehe.

Once the factory has Italy done, they will know exactly what kind of quality FMG is willing to accept and can knock out the rest of the countries a lot faster.  That first set is always going to take longer if you are strict about your expectations on quality.

Yeah but are the molds being made or are they already made?

Excellent looking transport FMG!
Another winner.

Now when you complete your cruiser could you please pose it beside your destroyer?

#486

It take too much time,
I WANT THEM ALL!

@Brain:

The ITALIAN mold will be made soon.  Just have to finish up the planes and a few odds n ends.

In the interests of funding this project and to make sure everyone gets them sooner than later we will release the Nations as we go…  and have a COMPLETE set for sale at the end.

@i:

FMG will you make L/H cruisers??

We have a new Cruiser for each nation.  Including ITALY, RUSSIA and FRANCE!

Best guess for when Italy is available? I’d love to pre-order but don’t know where on the site.
Also, do we know that the color for Italy in AAE40 is the same? This is important…
Finally, perhaps the Chinese units could be included with another country if costs are prohibitive to sell individually. I’d pay a little extra for a combined ANZAC / China set.

I am just getting eager, that’s all.

Yeah, id like some units for the chinese too,
Infantry, a plane and some art… even if i never saw the in game yet…

@Imperious:

Lets get this out before the AAE40, so we will have the proper pieces for that one.

Be careful what you wish for… there’s more than one way for that to come true!

Are you suggesting that WOTC might drag their feet?

FMG- The unit list in the update thread seems a bit out of date with the other things that have been talked about here. Can you list the unit types that will now be included with each army set? Here’s what I remember:

Infantry 1
Infantry 2
Commander
Mech Inf (half track)
Artillery
Tank 1
Tank 2
Fighter
Tac Bomber
Bomber
Carrier
Battleship
Cruiser
Destroyer
Sub
Transport
Bunker/Blockhouse

Each NATIONAL SET WOULD INCLUDE:

26 Infantry
12 Artillery
12 Armour
12 Fighters
9 Bombers
12 Submarines
12 Destroyers
9 Crusiers
6 Battleships
6 Aircraft Carriers
12 Transports
NEW
6 Bunkers / Pill Boxes
3 Commander Units
12 Half tracks
12 Trucks
3 Task Force Markers (Like Pacific)
3 ********* Special Suprise

FMG has already informed us that this list is largely obsolete (for example, some types units are absent), and will later be replaced with a more accurate list.  FMG also confirmed that the amount of certain types of pieces will differ from nation to nation, using as an example, the hint that the USSR will receive less carrier pieces than Japan.

@FieldMarshalGames:

Yes we have.  The first Edition run will include the following for each Nation (Italy included)

Naval Units:
Transport
Submarine
Destroyer
Cruiser
Carrier
Battleship
Task Force Marker (Similar to AAP)

Air Units:
Fighter
Bomber
Dive Bomber
Air Transport

Army Units:
Infantry (Two Sculpts each)
Armour (Two Sculpts each)
Artillery
Half Track (Priest for Commonwealth units)
Truck
Commander Unit

Other Units Bonus:
Bunker Unit
Naval Base Unit-Marker (Like AAP)
Air Base Unit-Marker (Like AAP)
Army HQ Unit-Marker

This is what we have so far….  (We also are working on a BATTLE CHEST to hold these units… This may come later)
