Please have a look

I’ll second Andy above.  HBG has some great pieces and they paint up really well because of the detail.  Good source for OOB pieces as well.  Their Fw-190’s are a bit smaller than the OOB versions, but everything else I’ve gotten from them has been great.  Especially the Hellcats, Vals, and Stuka G’s.

Thank you so much! I should take it slow but it’s hard when your so hooked. I love WWII history so much that Axis and Allies is like some “dream come true” of a game to me. Love your singnature quote by the way.

Thank you for the invitaion. I’m working a lot this week but come this weekend, I’ll make time for that. Sounds wonderful!

Anyone else want to play a Set 1 game?

Wow! Tiger heaven and great strat resulted in my first loss–quite badly at that.

What has been allies experience in the past in dealing with this map? Because we had only 20 units at 300 points I had to field several (5) armor and normally would have tried to lay back at the objective, but had not place to hide more than 2, maybe three units and theyd be divided heavily. With 3 crocs I had to charge and it was not pretty.

In expectation of an open map with heavy armor a must, then I’d guess going M26/M36’s for flanking would be wise. Any thoughts?

Yes ebay is a good place to get single pieces to fill out an army.  but buying sets is not a good idea

You might also recall that there is a 15 unit limit, which helps somewhat against infantry.

SS-Panzergrenadiers, MG 42s, sIG/Brummbars are all useful.

I have an apartment building not more than 1/2 mile from that place…when visit it i usually eat at that “good neighbor” restaurant next door. That store is kinda small… have you seen others play axis and allies there? Or just the miniatures version of it?

Meh, I just made my own and stuck it into the box with the counters and such.
