It is not an extended discussion of the history of Elite Soviet/German Commando troops, but what FMG is doing with the new Italian pieces. I do not just show up unless somebody PM’s “hey this is getting out of hand”
A bunch of posts were just about the Spatz ( however it is correctly spelled)
You neither answered my question nor addressed my main point.
The Spetsnaz discussion did start to get off track… and was moved to its own thread accordingly! Since it was 40 pages long already (and yes, I took the time to read ALL of them, though it took me a while) I’d say the thread had gotten, let’s say, unwieldy, months ago, but I attribute this mainly to FMG’s continuing to put us off, month after month. Perhaps we should have a new sticky thread just for the “ever upcoming Italians…”
However, since there’s absolutely nothing more to say about the “new Italians” until FMG finally deigns to show us something, right now I’m much more interested in hearing various views on the different approaches to unit gradations/ variations that I referred to in my previous post… (And which I do hope will be addressed in FMG’s announced “complete” package that was the original focus of the thread.)
I have a question, Is FMG, in addition to providing the units, also writing rules/stats for these new units? Or is it where we get the units & houserule them in ourselves?

I think the best place to find house rules for extra units is here! Members of this community can do that and already do in a separate section of this Forum.
Italian units would make a nice Christmas gift, Don’t you think?

I wish! I don’t think everyone understands how EPIC a project like this is… how expensive and how much time it takes.
We are moving as fast as we can. They will be out 2010 100%
I’ll probably be broke until after Christmas anyway.

I can empathize with you man, Projects slipping to the right is just a natural part of business. Usually people underestimate the work required during the planning stage, key people are away, or certain supplies can’t deliver on time etc etc.
It’s just part and parcel of business and business planning. I do commend you on fronting up here and informing your customer base of the delays though, good man.
I know the guys at FMG aren’t just screwing around. If it were up to them, the pieces would be on the market now. I just want to commend them for their great work and their commitment to the A&A community. Let us not forget how WotC has treated us……
FMG PROJECT UPDATE
The first test Sculpts are coming out! Once I have the FULL Italian set ready I will post a picture on the AA50 board and some comparison shots with the original pieces.
This is the FIRST one complete and ready for production. This is a blown up image to show detail. The unit is in the standard AAA Tank unit size. The production units will of course be made in COLOR… as this test sculpt is just made in Grey plastic.
ENJOY!
OMFG!!! that is really awesome. Great detail!!!
I will have to raise my order to at least 6 sets.
I think this will be good competition against the metal 1/285 micro armor, because this is better for gaming and you dont have to glue it together.
Bravo!!
That looks awesome. Now I am even more eager. +1
Well Done FMG! After being out of town the last month, this is a great joy to see posted upon return.
More +1’s are a coming! and looking forward to the ordering!
Great job!
Very, Very NICE!

Ditto on that! I think you’ll definitely give GHQ a run for their money.
Thank you for all your effort FMG!
That’s impressive.
I’m very impressed by the level of detail. The smallest details appear to be pushing the .2mm barrier.
Wow!!! that has to be the most beautiful plastic miniature I have ever seen!! I’m telling you right now, if all of them look as beautiful as this…. I will never buy W.W.II miniatures anywhere else!! I’m in for two sets, at least…
As one of the resident miniature painters here I am blown away by this sample…… that’s just amazing
I am gaping at what appears to be the finest plastic tank sculpt I’ve ever seen! Wow… I’m all in.
They look Great! I want to have 2 sets to, because the standard of your’e sculpts is very high, hats off here.
Keep up the good work! :-D
