Gents,

I Will be using all the extra pre-WWI Battleships for inclusion Imperious Leaders WWI game.
Just need a Grand Fleet pre-Dreadnought built to even out the WW1 Fleets.
I have not received mine yet, but I am expecting them this week.  I will offer my comment on them after I receive them.

Excellent new German pieces… definitely the best HBG set yet. Great quality and service. Highly recommended.

The Tigers are quite exceptional. Mechanized infantry are also impressive. The heavy artillery are very cool. The light carrier is surprisingly detailed. I do love the Ju-488 heavy bombers and the Me-262s. All around a great set.

Here’s a couple of comparison pics for those of you that haven’t seen them yet. A top view and a front view.
HBG Tiger –- OOB 1941 Tiger — OOB Panther
HBG 251 Halftrack — OOB 251 Halftrack

By the way, has anyone else noticed that the HBG Tigers even include the little rear mud-flaps? Now THAT’S some incredible detail. Only thing missing is the hull-mounted machine gun barrel, which is a little disappointing…HA HA, Just kidding. These pieces are GREAT!

Gents,

As promised here my take on Coach’s new German units.
Tiger E1 is Excellent, compares in size to DAVCO 1/300 Tiger E1s in metal.  This unit has great detail.
PZ II will round my Afrika Korps Divisions and the 2 mgs are a great detail.
Heavy Artillery is really an awesome unit, even better than the metal ones I own.
Paras are totally cool units.
Battleships have fantastic detail and the light carrier is spot on to the pictures I have of the proposed designs.
D0-17 is an interesting aircraft. I personally would not have wanted to fly one.
German Heavy Bomber is totally cool.  Need some B-29 Super Fortresses to counter them.
ME-110 Fighter  and the Junkers transport are well designed.
The ME-262 is in the right scale, they were not large jets.  Will need Some British Gloster Metors to compete with them.
Or just paint up a bunch of RED TAILS ON P-51s for the Tuskegee Airmen.
The Super Sub will make a great Milch cow for the smaller OOB subs.

Coach, all in all a well designed bunch of German units.
Waiting to see what you create for the Japanese and French next.  Keep up the Superb work and again Thank You for giving us some new and unique units to field in our favorite game.

Yeah, saw one at the US Air Force Museum a few weeks back and was surprised how small it actually was.

Check this out. I just put together the basic 1940 setup using as much HBG pieces as possible.
First is the Germany setup. The only OOB pieces I had to use were AA guns, Cruiser and Transport. Everything else is HBG. Yes, I know I could have used Panzer IIIs but I wanted to use my new Tigers.
Next is the Russian setup. The only OOB pieces are the Cruiser and 2 Submarines. Everything else is HBG. Plus, in this one everything fits because it is Coach’s Early War Russian set.

Here is the 1940 US setup, first Atlantic then Pacific. All land and air units are HBG. The AA guns and most naval vessels are OOB except for the Battleship and Carrier (I used the HBG Escort Carrier). The infantry are all airborne because we don’t have a regular infantry from HBG yet. For Artillery I used the M-7 Priest, for mechs I used the Mack Trucks and for armor I used the M-5 Stuart. The Bomber is the HBG B-25 and the fighters are P-40s. Overall I would say it looks pretty good.

HBG German Tigers and 251s are up on the site now for individual sale. Black and Dark Grey.

I am still waiting for those German individual units. I need some JU52 tri-motors, some panzer IIs, some heavy artillery and some ME-262s.

I seem to recall that you had announced a few months ago that you were also planning to issue some new roundels for European minors like Slovakia and Belgium.  Are those still being projected?

Oh k!  You’re forgetting about the Marine w/ tommy gun sculpt; in OD it works fine as regular infantry, and use the dark green for the Marines!  I think it actually works better than using all field hats for regular German infantry…

Hey Variable are we going to get an e-mail shot to us on the 1914 pieces I put in a order on the waiting list. How will we know when the go time is on this.

Emails went out

Are the mini-sets contents set in stone?

Can’t see Germany needing any more Battleships, but might need more than 3 extra infantry, and several subs if using some strategies.

I’ll wait 'till you include Gothas.  :roll:

Might I also suggest a one-cures-all set with:

Set of extra chips

Set of extra dice

4 UK infantry

4 German infantry

4 German subs

4 UK transports

4 US transports

(I don’t like using chips for ships…)

Set of sea mine markers (4 in red, 9 in blue)

Let you know if I run out of anything else.

Maybe a “Bolshevik” set in red for certain Russian Revolution Variants?
