@RisingSun I had similar experience, I was big into the naval miniatures but couldn’t afford both. I bought a lot on ebay a year or so ago and have played a few games. It is not difficult to learn especially if you are familiar with the navy side, it’s pretty similar but includes facing. I think it’s a great game and wish I had collected it some when it was active.
Future Expansions?

Why does a “D-Day” set have Japanese units, for example?
I think its because the Japanese were there sightseeing, you know, the Louvre and Eiffel Tower make for memorable photos :lol:.
-
What really got me about that set is that the Higgins Boat is a rare. How can you be expected to have D-Day landing when you can’t get a Higgins Boat? It is a cool piece but it is D-Day for goodness sake no Higgins Boats no D-Day.

What is the name for the North African set going to be? Is the Desert Fox, Rommel, going to be in this one? Or is he somewhere else. I guess he’s all I know about the North African campaign, except it was primarily English and German units, right?

Umm, there was this American general known as Patton involved – maybe you’ve heard of him? :wink:

hmmm. . . he does ring a bell.
I feel like an idiot. Let my newbie-ness show. :-D

With the newly modified units coming out in the starter pack, what is happening to all of the booster packs that are out? For example if I want the Contested Skies booster pack, is there a certain one I need to look for so that the pieces look the same as the “new” starter pack?
-
Ahhh, that’s good news. :-)
I don’t think I’ll be getting any more sets. I just cant see going out buying basic units (like the Sherman) all over again just so I can get the new-and-improved sized version. And I don’t really want to have a mix. I’m too anal to have a giant Sheman and a baby Sherman in play at the same time.

The new set has a lot of new stats for the old pieces and it looks like almost all of the vehicles have been repainted.

David, don’t hold out on us – how do you know this? Can you post any pictures? Anything :?

My booster case was delayed for various reasons. I was thinking of writing an article that outlines all of the differences.
