I wanted to use this for the NEW AA Gun re: Bofors 15CM . It is the only weapon used by all Axis and Allied Nations in the Second World War.
Thoughts?
Bofors 15cm sounds fantastic.
I can only imagine that selecting what you want to sculpt as early as possible will significantly expedite production. And help foresee similarities that may make pieces confusing… in the absence of silhouette charts and magnifying glasses. :-D

Hey FMG,
How are things going with the last of the Italian units? What’s the current situation with the Strat Bomber piece? Are you guys working on a scult right now?
Thank you
Im on vacation until Monday… but I am told I should expect an update from the factory at that time.
Isn’t a 15cm gun kind of big for anti-aircraft?

OK didn’t notice that but actually now that you mention it…. that’s HUGE!
Having one AA for all nations sounds great to me though.

If this is it then its not that big?
It’s weird, but I’m more excited about the upcoming Italy set than I am about Europe 40… Now that’s gotta be saying something! :-)
@Danger:

OK there’s no way that that pic’s a 15cm gun.
And that would be the diameter of the barrel between lands (the ungrooved part)… so 150mm… almost 6 inches. Twice the width of a Sherman’s gun and WAY bigger than the dreaded 88.

Is it bigger than the gun in your avatar?

Yup. You won’t find a 150mm mounted on a MBT.

Sorry Main Battle Tank.

I wonder if FMG was thinking 1.5"… wouldn’t that be (roughly) 37mm?
Now that would be a candidate for AA.

Hi,
Im new to this forum, I just played my first game of A&A and just got hooked :roll:
This is a big thread and i don’t know if somebody asked this question, but where is the Mechanized Infantry?
I know the cost would be much larger, just asking :-)

Hasn’t been made yet. We are still waiting for that and the Submarine.
Ahhh, that explains why I see no pics
Did the Italians have Mechanised Infantry during WWII?
I think motorized is as far as they got…
Well if that’s true, then it’s an interesting situation for Italy because the Mech Inf playing piece is generic for all major powers in the game; not a technological improvement like it was in AA50. So - if that’s the case, then the upcoming AA Europe 40 will see the Italians as already having acquired that technology, won’t it? :lol:
I suppose that the Infantry piece in the A&A game series is given as having a motorised compliment included within it… So I guess they will never make a dedicated Motorised Infantry piece (and that’s fair enough I think, due to the scale of the theatre/global games).
Will FMG therefore provide this gap in the market and produce Motorised Infantry? :-)

Although I think that the mech inf piece is supposed to also represent motorized inf and any other type of inf not riding the “old black cadillacs” into combat (walking), if memory serves FMG’s sets will include trucks…

hello im new here and i just wanted to ask if the Vought F4U Corsair was recommended for fighters. they were quite important in the pacific theater during the war. Here is a link http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vought_F4U_Corsair#United_States_Navy_and_Marine_Corps
