Another German Set of vehicles
-
Considering what FMG is making and what i am doing for my first set, what other vehicles would you like to see for the German, vote for as many as you like.
-
As much as I want the Jagdtiger you have 2 on the list coach
-
You got rid of the one I voted for, sorry for being a pain, note I vote for it!
-
By the way coach, I know I’m being a pain, but know whatever you make you will be getting a ton of orders from me! Thank you for doing this for all us Axis and Allies-ers!
-
You should be able to change your vote!
-
Seeing as FMG is already doing both Tigers, and Coach is already doing Panzer 38 (t), Panzer III, Panzer IV (early), Panzer IV (late), & StuG III, I avoided voting for those on this one.
-
coach are your mech infantry going to be oob scale or fmg scale?

I have asked FMG for his scaling and he told me that he is using OOB for scaling, so I will too.
-
+1000 for a Panzer II - that is my most desired piece from A&A.
Coach, keep the costs down by just matching the OOB detail - honestly, the new 1940 pieces are great and just matching them would be perfect.
-
Here was my votes:
Panzer I & Panzer II == These would really be cool for more “early war” scenarios.
Fw190 -= It would be cool to have a new German fighter.
Elephant = Excellent tank destroyer IMO.
Maus (Super Heavy tank) == I just think this would be a cool piece to include. Maybe use as a tech upgrade after King Tigers. -
Coach,
One bit of advice is to include a “tracked artillery” piece for every set you do (except US Marines of course).
Germany: Hummel/Wespe
Russia: Katyusha
US: M7 Priest
UK: Sexton
Japan:Type 4 Ho-Ro (used only in Okinawa/Phillipines, but at least it was used!)
Italy: Semovente 90/53I can find a French one as well if you wish. What this does is expand the variety of units available for all powers, and I don’t think that many people will want to turn down the option of buying a Russian Katyusha, or any of the other options!
-
Mark 4 and Mark 5 and jagdpanther is what I went with. Don’t really need them but I would buy them.

Great idea reloader. I’ve always wanted to add an SP Art piece for Axis and Allies.

Italy: Semovente 90/53For a Soviet SP artillery, there are quite a few gun-armed ones that would be a better fit with the others in the list than the Katyusha… SU-122, for instance.
The closest French equivalent would be the SAu-40, though I don’t think many were made.
Closest Japanese equivalent would probably be the Ho-Ni, though, again, I don’t think it was widely used. The US, UK, USSR, and Germany all made plenty though… what would distinguish them rule-wise, from a TD though?
-
Well what are rules for a TD? I think the SP Art would be what Mech Inf is to Infantry, ie just artillery with extra movement. Whereas a TD could be a tank-like unit weak on either defense or offense with a bonus when combined with a tank.
-
I’ll have to find the rules that were posted a while back, but it was basically 2 att / 2 def, boosts 1 inf (reg or mech) to attack 2.
Can blitz w/ tanks.
Instead of tracked artillery, self-propelled artillery is a better term. I chose the Katyusha because it was the iconic russian artillery piece in WWII.
-
I think a tank destroyer would be weaker on offense and stronger on defense in line with their primary role of waiting in ambush of tanks.
By the way, I don’t think the Katyusha was a tracked vehicle. They were trucks with rocket launchers mounted in the beds.
-
The Katyusha was definitely not tracked - that was a mistype.
I think a better term for the unit is self-propelled artillery.

Have a Tank Destroyer if a hit, can target other Tanks or mechs, etc. Great against the Russian who use Infantry as their losses. (Not any more!)

coach are your mech infantry going to be oob scale or fmg scale?
I will scale to OOB. The Sherman/Panther is about as close to 1/285 as you can get, so why not scale to them?
I chose a 232 armored car and it is a good size for the game, a 222 will be too small, so either I scale it up so it is useable or do not use it at all, there are plenty of choices. I want my Tiger II to over power the other tanks on the board. It comes down to the look on the board, one should not have to pick up a piece to find out what it is. I want to be able to look across the board and tell automatically what type of unit it is. i am being very careful in picking units for you. When I do a German Airborne unit, it will probably have a FG-42 machine gun, there will be no trouble picking that out! I work a full-time job and every waking hour when i am not filling orders, taking photos, restocking my webstore, etc I am working out what I feel are the perfect size, color and sculpt so that all (OOB) and FMG customers are happy. Thanks for the Polling results! I will use them!
