Painted the corsairs dark blue on top and a sky blue on the under side. I am not a good enough painter to put the small insignias on the planes. I painted the SNLF white with blue helmets.
I think you are making Block Houses too strong; all infantry defend @ 4? That’s too high. It should be a 3.
Also, if you use the HBG Marines and attack with a flamethrower unit, that should negate the block house advantage.
Not quite the same as Axis & Allies but there is “1812; Invasion of Canada”, which is a semi card driven war game. It uses wooden blocks but you could substitute these with “Viktory” game pieces or other miniatures. The game is worth checking out on its own merits, with or without miniatures.
The map to supremacy is horrible and they have nothing like the unit varation or number of terriotries axis and allies has. plus their is no reason the countries are fighting each other
Though I could go into greater detail, a few people from these boards have tried out Empire Forge. They seem to enjoy the game. C’mon over and check it out.
