Re: Field Marshal Games Pieces Project Discussion thread

@cminke:

all i said was is it confermed that grey is before black.

yes.  But if you need an exact quote, look through Jeremy’s posts by searching through his profile, which will be easier than looking page by page.

@Stickman:

FMG- I know you plan on doing both Black and Gray for the Germans, I was wondering if both colors will be done simultaneously, or will we have to wait for U.S. to be completed? Thank you.

Right now we are working on getting the Nations done and released as quickly as possible.  SPECIAL EDITIONS will be released later.

The FIRST Germany Units will be Grey

i found it

@FieldMarshalGames:

Our project here is not to COPY, but to replace and SURPASS

Surpass my budget!!

Can i expect to receive the italian units in February? I’m in Europe… :-)

I don’t think ANY of us will be getting our Italian units until sometime in February.

Maybe even late February, early March.

seems like it:(

My latest update is for mid-late Feb

@FieldMarshalGames:

My latest update is for mid-late Feb

So, if i’m not wrong, for Europe it arrives for mid March?

@FieldMarshalGames:

Is that mid-late Feb refer to you getting the final samples for approval or to receiving the finished pieces for order fulfillment?    Is this pushing back the Germany pieces timeline?

Is March 8th when you get the pieces or when they will be produced?

/mumbles something about Chinese holidays …

They are finished production on March 8th.  Then they are shipped to me, and to customers who placed a pre-order on this board.

VERY close!

Is this March 8 date for the Italian Combat Units alone or does it include the French/ANZAC Combat Dice as well?

Ok, they look great…but I’m still a touch disappointed with a couple of choices.

I thought FMG said from the start that the PZ III was already set to be in this?  Instead we get two heavy tanks?  The WW2 game did this with the Tiger and Maus already and IIRC it was not an overly popular move.  I had thought (but I certainly may have been wrong) that part of the point behind 2 tanks was to allow some house rule variety.  But it seems the Germans are stuck with “heavy” and “even heavier and slower” as choices.   :-(

And…again we get an AA gun as an artillery piece???  I have hated that since AAE and was looking forward to it getting addressed.  Oh well.  I was hoping the 88 would be included…as an AA gun, and with an actual purpose built artillery piece filling that role.

Maybe the future sets with great coat guy will have what I’m looking for.

I really really wanted a Panzer III as well.

We already have a heavy tank in the OOB set, and for those who want FMG pieces to “replace” and not supplement, we have the Tiger.

The France/ANZAC dice are coming in the same shipment as the Italian units, so they’ll all be sent out at the same time.
