I think you are making Block Houses too strong; all infantry defend @ 4? That’s too high. It should be a 3.
Also, if you use the HBG Marines and attack with a flamethrower unit, that should negate the block house advantage.

With the WOTC German carrier, the Stuka landing struts straddled it which was fine with me. I kept having a problem with my Vals tipping over the side of the Japanese carriers until I started using the magnets.
After looking at the sculpt pics and pre-production pics of FMG’s German carrier, it looks to me like it will be wider than the OOB German carrier. Plus, I thought it was said that the ships from FMG will be slightly larger than the OOB ships for better detail. With a slightly wider flight deck and slightly larger overall size, our new planes should be able to fit on our new carriers just fine, landing struts or no landing struts. At least that is how it is looking to me so far.
Can’t wait to have these pieces in hand. I can almost feel them already.

Looks good can’t wait. I have said it before these will replace my current pieces.

Yes, the Stuka landing gear should be compatable with the German carrier. That is very important. If the carrier deck is skinny then the gear needs to be close together.
Yeah, that was actually not what I’m advocating. Yes, it’s “realistic” in the sense that the landing gear is functional on the carrier, but it’s far easier to deal with the pieces when the stuka straddles the zeppelin and locks in a little bit (and considering how narrow the Zeppelin is, they really should lock around, not sit on). Same with the Val on the Japanese carrier - near the front the landing gear more or less lock in place around the sides… much less tipping.
-
off topic: for your vall problem straldle them on the thin end of the carrier it fits purfactly

I’m so pleased with the look of these minis that, even after all my work on these (http://www.axisandallies.org/forums/index.php?topic=20025.0) - they’ll be replaced by FMG’s. C’mon Chinamen! eh eh eh
-
I agree on the carrier remarks; ascetically, it is very nice for them to fit easily onto the carriers. I have stopped using the US and JAP tacs and replaced them with the older alternate versions of the fighters from earlier games because I got tired of having to get the pieces ‘just right’ to stay on while they were moved or the board was bumped ever so slightly…
looking forward to all the pieces FMG! Great stuff! -
