@jwo1984:
Pacific theater is looking intense John brown. such a great display of detailed and colorful units and pieces on the board! makes me want too launch into a pacific battle right now. Looking forward to seeing the US get painted and added too these shots. Unfortunately the Anzac and Chinese forces are just not enough to contain and fight back the expanding Red Sun!
  So is it correct that you haven’t learnt how to play the game yet john brown….if that’s true and when you do, it will make some of these well painted pieces that much more grander…the loss of a battleship or one bomber can be catastrophic in the game…as is the loss of one of these beautiful paint jobs off the board!
I know how to play, I just don’t have enough experience or people around me to play.
I’ve played Pacific about four times and Europe and Global once. I haven’t found anybody that plays in my home town. The closest people that are near me are about two hours away, but I don’t enjoy driving enough, just to play.
That is why I got into painting this year, like you guys. Someday, I will get to use my pieces, along with the one’s Spitfire has painted for me, but until then, I’m just enjoying painting and admiring Spitfire’s paint jobs.
I’m going to start solo games this Summer, but due to my job, I haven’t had time lately.
Spitfire’s next two sets will be UK Pacific and UK Europe, but it will be late December to February before, we see the next set. He has to work this Summer and will not be able to paint for awhile.
US Pacific and US Europe will be next year, so it will be awhile before we see the US.
This is also why I started to paint, because I knew that this would be a long project going into it, but I’m sure enjoying watching all you guys paint yours.
I hope this answers your questions.
Cheers! :-D
