Re: Field Marshal Games Pieces Project Discussion thread

@Imperious:

I hope the legs on that wont break?  They seem kinda long

They will be very sturdy…  like the Japanese artillery in Field Command.(but these are shorter)

How about tipping forward? Do the legs weigh enough to keep the barrel up?

Yes, it will stand on its own like the real life model.

Okay I will be the first to say it. Awesome FMG! I can’t wait to get my very own.

Ohhh… this is good stuff.  8-)

Thank you FMG, thank you! Just tell me when I can buy!! :-)

Yep, good stuff indeed. Your army of faithful project investors is ready to put down our money for the Italian sets!

Holy crap, that’s an awesome artillery piece!  I think I’ll spend the next half-hour staring at it.

any who, back to the issue of the US bomber:

The Liberator looks pretty Bad @$$!  Better than the B-17. actually.  I love it.  great pick.  Put in on the line.  I’ll have 100, please.

Where did you see an FMG Liberator piece?

They haven’t made it yet.  They just want to do the Liberator, since the B-17 is overused, and the Liberator was the most common US bomber.  There have several posts going back and forth on which bomber should be the US one.

The Liberator itself, looks Bad @$$, but I’m sure a sculpt would be beyond awesome.  None the less, any US sculpt is far off.  After Italy, Japan will be next.

I’d actually like a B-24 since I can buy a 1/700 B-25 that would fit in nicely…

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.

@Imperious:

just another side note: my play station name is cminke (add me

What the hell??? :-D :-D

Must be for online gaming.
