• Since we know the French tank sculpt will not be uniquely French from previous LH posts, I’m thinking it’s pretty certain that they’ll get the Sherman. Not the T-34.

  • From the list of facts announced by LH:

    @Imperious:

    AAE40 and AAE40 Fact Sheet: (Reformatted version of above)
    Unique French infantry pieces (blue color) Infantry will have a unique sculpt, while tanks, and non-infantry will use existing sculpts from other players (mostly using allied sculpts). France has its own national tokens.

  • So Anyway, It seems to me pretty clear that France will be using existing allied pieces. I would think they will be using British pieces, mainly because, as people have stated, the shemans would look a bit off. Also, I think another issue will be the fighter planes would look a bit off if you used American pieces, P-38’s wouldnt look right.

    Maybe thats why they might use Soviet pieces, because the soviet yak fighter is alittle more ambiguios then they British and American fighter sculpts. Of course this creates the obvious problem of the French having the T-34’s.
    Perhapse they will use a hybrid instead of just one countires.

    Axisgirl, im sorry if you feel your being treated unfairly, but sometimes your posts dont have much to do with whats being discussed.


  • Will France share a box with the UK or US Krieg?

    Considering both of these powers have boxes in pacific, it would make things simpler for the global game.

    I assume it is the US, because the Setup chart on the US box for the US will only have
    Eastern US - Major Factory, AA Gun, Port, Airbase, 2 Infantry, 1 Artilery, 1 Mech Infantry, 1 Armor, 2 Fighters, 1 Tactical Bomber, 1 Bomber.
    Central US - 2 Infantry
    Panama - 1 Infantry, Port
    SZ off the coast of US - 2 Destroyers, 2 Cruisers


  • Well Krieg has said France shares a box….however
    A US/UK box would have been ideal!

    Since those powers both already have boxes, in global you wouldnt need the US/UK box

    Where’d you get that setup, and why no transports?


  • Just a guess
    and no transports to slow down the US.


  • In terms of who shares a box with the French, I think it’d come down to how many territories they are set-up in.

    If the other power is all over the map then the set-up text won’t leave room for the French set-up.

    This is why the only logical choice for who shares a box with France must be the USA which has very few territories on the map that can be populated initially. Unless you want An Axis player to share a box with their enemy.

    Is this confirmed?
