We made 3 sizes of factories that can be printed and painted.
yes, I saw those and that’s the reason I asked :wink:, the thing is, 3d-printer shops aren’t that etablished in Europe (or at least the parts I come from), that’s the reason I asked whether you plan on producing and selling them as pieces. Thanks for the answer, which I guess is a no.
Would leave the question about the sculpts for the naval and airbaises? :roll:
Not as of yet. We would like to do them, but not this year.
Coach,
Are there any plans for a French set with a Battleship, Cruiser and a aircraft carrier?
WARRIOR888
Yes, we are working on the French, UK, US, French/Neutral WW1, and German Minor Sets
WOW! Five sets at the same time? You guys are keeping yourselves busy. Really looking forward to the French set and the German Minor set. That one is going to include Panzer IV, Stukas and I think you mentioned a different type of halftrack/mechanized infantry piece. Wasn’t it the SdKfz 250?
Another US set too? Is this going to be an expansion set or a basic set?
The UK set will probably be supplemental, right?
You are still planning on making the Japanese basic set, right? Will all the nations eventually get basic sets from HBG?
About the French WW2 set, since OOB are Soviet sculpts, is HBG’s going to start out with a French basic set?
I’d love to see a B29 and a Hellcat and/or Wildcat.

Some late ww1 German Infantry with Steel helmets would be great, also some minor powers like Bulgaria, Romania, Serbia etc.
Well if we’re going to wish, Chinese units would be good too. I would love to see a gunboats, corvettes, and midget subs. Personally I’m more for additional unit types over improved OOB pieces. Doesn’t really matter though because I end up buying them anyway lol.

HBG,

––All I can say is,…YEAH! I pre-ordered three of these sets also and will be looking to add additional numbers of certain units whenever you start individual sales of this set.
Three Cheers for HBG!

HBG just posted these on FB:
Deutschland-class pocket battleship
F-86? Definitely US jet fighter
UK tank
German Infantry for next Axis minor set:
Absolutely loving the Pocket Battleship! Not sure why I like them so much, but I always have. Excellent choice HBG boys. :-)

Same here. Very nice! What set(s) will these be part of?

On FB they said this was part of the next Axis Minor set. The US jet fighter was simply said to be part of the “next US set”.
I imagine the next US set would be the US Expansion Set since we already got the Supplement set.
Loving the Pocket Battleship. That was one of the pieces I was most looking forward to in the FMG German set. A little surprised it will be in the Axis Minors set since this particular unit was exclusively used by the German Navy and not any of it’s minor allies. Still, really looking forward to this piece. Who knows, perhaps in an alternate timeline Romania or Finland could be operating Pocket Battleships. Wonder what kind of values we should give it. Perhaps Attack=4, Defense=3, Move=2, Cost=15 and 1 hit to sink. Sounds about right.
How about that German infantry with the great coat? He looks nearly identical to the one FMG showed us way back at the beginning of plans for their German set but got shelved for a possible future special units set.
That Churchill tank looks pretty cool. I guess work has started on a British set. That’s great, because they need some new pieces.

Very similar indeed… though I do not mind since FMG is defunct at present. Here’s hoping they make it back though…
Still, very cool.
Also from Facebook: Midway - class heavy carrier United States
Guys,
––I really like the German Infantry sculp, especially the greatcoat. And since this is a GAME, we can use the
“Midway” class heavy carrier to offset the “Shinano” class carrier of the Japanese. I’m ready for them.
“Tall Paul”
Coach,
A Midway Super CV! Now that is just totally cool. I am waiting to see if you develop a Montana Class Battleship to take on Your Version of the Yamato. Your production of vehicles and ships is coming close to the detail level of Navwar and GHQ.
Again Excellent work. :-D :-D :-D
WARRIOR888
Now that things are up and running, HBG will definitely need to address missing US sculpts in order to round out their offerings. This includes artillery, a fleet carrier (if the Midway Class carrier is going to be a larger than normal sculpt) a cruiser, light cruiser, destroyer, submarine and transport.
