here is the link for the new updated map, it hasn’t changed much
Holy cowshit! What a nice piece of artillery. I really want to spend some money on these new units, sooner rather then later, to fill up my grand Ammo box! :D Looking forward to have a look at the italian aeroplanes.
Okay, let’s have a recount. So far we have seen the finished sculpts for the following units:
TANK
SELF PROPELLED GUN
INFANTRY 1
INFANTRY 2
COMMANDER
ARTILLERY
BATTLESHIP
AIRCRAFT CARRIER
DESTROYER
TRANSPORT
So what’s next, FMG? I understand that you are still developing the following:
SUBMARINE
CRUISER
FIGHTER
DIVE BOMBER
BOMBER
AIR TRANSPORT
HALFTRACK
TRUCK
BUNKER
NAVAL BASE
AIR BASE
ARMY HQ
Can you please confirm if this is all correct? Is there anything else I missed? Many thanks to you for all your hard work; it’s been about a year now and I hope all is running to schedule. :-)
BUNKER
NAVAL BASE
AIR BASE
ARMY HQ
The above will be included in a separate set and will include IC, Minor IC, TASK FORCE MARKER and AAA gun.
The remaining ITALIAN pieces we already have sculpts for, just waiting for the Factory to finish.

Will they be nation specific, or just gray?
Just keeping watching this thread. As soon as the factory finishes the test sculpts of the remaining Italian pieces, I’m willing to bet that FMG will begin the pre-order process for the Italian set. Other sets to follow after that, but so far, no Canadians planned.
The “Extras” set will be Grey like the classic ICs of most games.
As for Canadians… not in the plan at the moment. We kinda have our hands full with the 9 nations we are working on. Release should be in this order:
ITALY
JAPAN
“Extras set”
USA
GERMANY
USSR
UK
ANZAC (Diff colour than UK and with a few specific units of its own)
FRANCE
If all goes as planed;
CHINA???
NEUTRALS???
Canadians???
Tech Units???
NOTE: ITALY is the first, and is taking the longest. Once ITALY is complete the others will move much faster. This is due to set-up, factory experience and of course… funds.
just another side note: my play station name is cminke (add me
What the hell??? :-D :-D

Yes, but what color should Canada be (yellow-green, green-yellow, light blue?)? Should India be a separate color (tan [in between UK and ANZAC light and dark tan], yellow, black)?
Spain?
Turkey? (black?)
Or should all neutrals be white?
As far as neutrals i dont see ( other than me buying the standard 6 copies) why they need to make dedicated neutral units.
Rather alternative colors from existing units:
Finland= German in White
Romania= German in green
Bulgaria= German in light grey
Hungry= German in Dark Grey
Spain= German in yellow or Italy
Turkey= Russian in light brown?
or just do axis neutrals: light Grey
Allied neutrals: light brown
For simplicity sake, I like IL’s idea of
Axis Neutrals = Light Grey
Allies Neutrals = Light Brown
For the “Light Brown”, I’d like to see the off-white from AADD used, unless we plan to use this for the Canadians…
FMG’s big marketing gig is quality plastic.
whatever color they choose, I don’t think it will be just copies of existing units.
any one have any pics of the pieces??
:? :? :? :-D :-( :-) :-D
My friend… A little bit of searching would have shown you thread that is two below this called “FMG Pieces Project”

No India seperate color, no Canada, no Spain, no Turkey, and I would like :
Axis Neutrals = Light Grey
Allies Neutrals = Light Brown

These are good ideas should we be able to do the Neutrals in the future!
Canada had how many troops in WWII? The British Empire is already represented with UK/ ANZAC / India, and Canadian Roundels.
Other than rah-rahing your own particular country, what major impact would adding Canada as a country provide to Axis & Allies? It would break up the UK’s power even more, (a country that can sorely afford that), and strengthen the Axis.
Or are you suggesting we break up the Axis to include the Germans, Italians, Romanians, Hungarians, etc?
Look, I love Canada as much as anyone else does, and they did provide a lot of support in WWII and WWI, but they are definitely not a major power.
And no, I am not mentally insane.
Btw, Cminke, I am not opposed to using different colored pieces for units built in Canada - they would add a little “flavour” to the game, and you could see Canada’s impact in the different fronts (Pacific, Atlantic). They would, however, not be any different than British units and move along with the UK units.
See, I’m not too insane! :-)

But, I am. :-o
I am okay with different molds, I guess, but I don’t want any more powers added to the game.
If this makes me insane so be it, I am brain damaged, as you know.
Don’t get me wrong, I love variety in plastic miniatures. But, we must remember that we are not only loosely replicating the fighting forces at the time, but also the economy to field such forces. If the major powers keep getting divided into increasingly smaller subsets, then none of the subsets will ever have income to field enough units to carry on the war.
Just my two-cents on the subject….
For all you people who want more than Italy, Japan, Germany, USSR, UK, USA, China and France, you had better buy some Italians when they come out because if they don’t sell, I don’t think that we will get anything more. Tell all your friends, get the word out. Buy FMG Italian pieces in mass quantities.
