HBG Olive color Marine sets

Oztea also has a 1942 setup

The colors have always varied widely, even when they were calling it by the same name.

As for the latest color names, I can’t verify exactly what they represent or if they are close to anything that has come out lately.  It has been a few years since I have ordered from Xeno.

Thanks Radar.  I don’t know what happened there but it won’t even let me modify it.  :(

@Red:

this might have beem mention but why not make a simple set of free French by just making regular A&A or an orginal scupt Inantry, US Shemans, 105 Howitzers and/or M-7 Priest, M-3 Half tracks and Brit Spitfires and Maquitoes all in light blue.  nice and simple. The Free French were mostly US made equipment anyway and HBG dosn’t make these in this color.

HBG has available its Allies Supplement set in Light Blue (http://www.historicalboardgaming.com/HBG-Battle-Pieces–Allies-Supplement-set-Light-Blue_p_1132.html), and I think it’s also planning to produce the same set in OOB French dark blue in the near future.

Hallo guys, I would like to share something about this topic.

Thank you for reading.

I have created SITREP, The day after… It’s basically Axis and Allies in a modern setting, starting the day after 9/11.

Modern units, a complete redesigned worldmap. It is all there.

In this boardgame, six powers are involved.

United States of America, United Kingdom, NATO at one side. On the other side, there are The Arab league, Russia and China.

I spend lots and lots of time to translate the ‘real’ situation into an Axis and Allies setting and according play style.
So far, I am very pleased and satisfied with the result.

I have recently created a new website to share the details with other players.
The introduction may be Dutch
The game rules however, are written in English.

See my website for some details, and feel free to comment.

If you’re going for Amerika Bombers, why not also consider the HE277, JU-390 (ooo, six engined), or the TA-400.  Also, the HE-274 would be appropriate.

I like IL’s suggestion of light yellow for the Spanish.

I was just scrolling down the thread to suggest turquoise for the Turkish (I had suggested for the Australians in the past before grey became the established colour for them) when I saw that Redking beat me to it. :-D Anyway, I do think it would be a good idea, if not for the Turkish then at least for another nation.

In relation to Red, I think I should point out that the FMG Soviet pieces will match the FMG Soviet dice, which are solid red and not reddish-brown.

While we are discussing colours, maybe we could suggest a list of possible remaining colours for HBG pieces, if more are needed (some of these have been suggested here previously):

Dark Grey-Green
Orange-Red (different enough to distinguish from FMG Soviet Red and OOB/FMG Japanese Orange, as necessary)
Yellow-Orange
Turquoise
Dark Navy Blue
Pale Grey-Blue
Pale Orange
Dark Yellow (but as dull as possible)

I would prefer to avoid bright and/or neon colours, together with pink and purple (although a dark or grey-ish purple might work if one was desperate for a new colour).

_Red for UK? Uh, we aren’t fighting in the colonial period here.

I think Khaki/Tan is a perfect color for UK._

You right……tan = UK.

Italy = red.
Germany = grey.
