COMBAT DICE UPDATE - FMG

What I would like is a package of poker chips (compatible with existing A&A versions) to use with 1914. I find that there simply isn’t room on the board for all the different stacks for each army, especially on the crowded western front.

So I just give each nation a single stack of chips with the required infantry unit on top.

The system I use is:

grey/white = infantry
red = artillery
green - tanks
blue = fighters

Additional colours might be reserved for new units vis:

black = bombers
yellow = cavalry

A nice touch would be for each colour to be embossed with the appropriate unit type.

Equivalent pieces for ships aren’t as important but maybe double sided chips for naval units?

now all it needs are your pieces

@12doze12:

This topic is a bit … off-topic but what all of us would be if there was no FMG …

1 - We would be desperate because the Italians use the same sculpts of Germany and France the same has SU … but FMG made a set of units for the Italian and is making one for France.

2 - We would bored of the same simple dices … but FMG made a set of 3 dices for each faction.

3 - We wouldn’t know where to put all of the Europe and Pacific 1940 content … but FMG made a box where you can put everything.

4 - We would be suspicious if our adversary is trying to role the dices to make small numbers came out … but FMG made a dice turret.

So what will it be to play this game without FMG ???

And Historical War Gamming, you also made our life better.

1 - Painted pieces for almost all important nations of ww2.

2 - You sell each unit from any game separatly.

3 - And you now are making a set for minor axis and marines.

FMG and HBG, you saved us !!!

Well Christmas isn’t all bad now won’t even have to pay for them. Thanks mom

No, sorry, same thing; it’s sometimes spelled one way and sometimes the other.  I’m trying to get used to spelling it IS-2, but I’m used to spelling it JS-2.

It stands for “Joseph Stalin 2” (in standard English romanization) which is also spelled Iosef Stalin in a more literal/accurate romanization, I believe.  Either way, “ole Joe Stalin” is the same person and the second model of tank named after him is the same tank.

tank #2 = IS-2….naaa release to late in the war to get a real impact.

I don’t know where on earth you guys are getting this: it’s simply not true!  (Are you guys still confusing the IS-2 with the IS-3?)  The KV series was off of the battlefied for the second half of the war, for the most part, and replaced by the IS-2!  More IS-2’s were produced than either KV-1 or KV-2’s (or stop-gap measures such as the KV-85 for that matter) and the Soviet counter-offensive that really won the war on Germany was spearheaded by twice as many IS-2’s as Germany ever produced Tigers!
