What about the color white for painters?
That would probably be acceptable. White might actually be the best for painting. I still really like the ivory or off-green, but like I said, ultimately, it will not matter because they will be painted.
White would be very good as a universal option. Don’t do it just for me though. I want this to be something that is either painless to implement or of great demand.

It is no doubt that the lighter colors are easier to prime and paint. I would think that the Rose or yellow color in the Japanese set would work best for painting, is this not a good choice?

Yes, either of those would be good also. If it is easier to use a color that you have already mixed or ordered for other sets, then do that. Makes your life a bit easier. Not sure which of the two would be best… your call. And thanks for the consideration Coach, even if it doesn’t pan out.
Oh yes… what we have all been waiting for! Say hello!
ENTERPRISE!
A new US Supplement set in the works?
@coachofmany:
Give us 10-14 Days to show you the current sets that are being worked on as well as Games that are also in line to be made. We all are very busy trying to gear up for Gencon and finish up Amerika as well as several other games, maps, sculpts, sets, ideas, etc. We appreciate all the excitement in the sets and pieces and HBG has spent much money and time to hopefully bring us up to the next level.
For the ones who attend Gencon, you will be able to see a sneak Peek at some other games and sculpts we are working on.
If it seems that we are all over the board is because we are, we are trying so many things and hope that our Customers jump on board.
We will have the new games show up on BGG as well as our website and also show the sets in line to produce.
I’m sorry if this has been asked and answered somewhere else. I haven’t seen it. Where at GenCon will you be setting up? Will it be in the A&A ballroom? A&A HQ? Or will you be in the exhibitor hall? I’ll be at GenCon Wednesday through Sunday, so I definitely want to see what you have and the sneak peaks you have to share!
Here’s a breakdown of how to find us at GenCon:
Amerika will be in Hall E, Blue 28-29 Friday, Saturday, and Sunday.
Midway will be in Hall E, Blue 3 on Friday and Blue 1 on Sunday.
Barbarossa will be Hall E, Blue 4 on Friday and Blue 11 on Saturday.
To get a complete listing of all of our dates, times, and locations, go to the “Find Events” search on the GenCon page and search by group/company. We are #215 on the list.

We got power back this afternoon, so I am working as hard as I can!
Finally got around to placing an order for some new pieces from HBG. Thanks, HGB!

Yeah, we had some of that same nastiness up here in Wichita. Lost power for about an hour and a half. How long were you guys out?
Despite the crazy weather at HBG, we are having a BIG SALE this Saturday and Sunday in case you missed it in the newsletter and on FB! Discounts on all Battle Pieces Sets, roundels, and Battle Bucks. Check it out starting Saturday morning.

Still 37,000 without power here in Tulsa, we lost power for one day but we are up and running .
The Allies needed a boost to thier bombing capabilities. So picked up some Mitchells , Corsairs, and Avengers.
I know you guys are busy but I have completed my coaster set from you guys for WW2(AWESOME) Guys are gonna laugh their butts off when they see them. Real nice touch to the feel of the game night. Question are the WW1’s in the que? Would definitely order them as well. Thanks HBG.

Hey guys, check this out. Been using some of HBG’s cool pieces. At this point in the game, Germany has developed Jet Fighters, represented by the Me262. Imagine Me262s on a Graf Zeppelin class aircraft carrier. Pretty cool looking I think.
You might note that Germany has also developed Long-Range Heavy Bombers, as represented by the great Ju488.
The Tiger tanks don’t represent any advance in technology. I just like using them.

At this point… is the game not yet over?
Believe it or not, it wasn’t quite over yet. We were using the Anniversary board and victory cities. The Axis needed 15 of the 18 to win. The US and China gave Japan fits in the Pacific and the Allies still had Washington, San Francisco, Honolulu, Sydney and Manila.
I think the next round finished it. Germany invaded and took Eastern US while Japan finally got their stuff together and took the Philippines and Australia.

I was going to say… :wink:
If the Axis didn’t win after all that, I think there would be a case of titanic mismanagement.
Well, not necessarily. What if the US suddenly came up with B-2 bombers, Abrams tanks and Terminator foot soldiers?

Those would take a pretty substantial research effort to produce with 1940s technology…but at least the M1 Abrams has the advantage of being available from HBG:
