HBG US Set in Optional Colors

A HUGE thanks to everyone here for your support over the years and to HBG for their efforts to aid us during this difficult period.

Thank you

I completely agree. But that isn’t what he said.

And the House(hanger) has a very small “footprint”, about the same size as the base of an Infantryman, only square instead of round.

It’s simply a choice. No space used and a “Symbol”,……OR
A tiny space used by a more 3-dimensional representation. Pick whichever one you like.

Here’s an interesting pic. One complete set of Axis Minors in each color now available to us. Quite a colorful mix, don’t you think?

The website says:
“They will be done in 2 colors, Burnt orange to match the Out of Box color and Yellow Gold for veteran pieces.”
I would like to see a third color if possible – ROSE for Siam/Thailand units.

Yes, I just order it. A must for my 1939 gameboard but if I can get some other figuries as field commander I could introduce general rules such discuss in the other tread. A new rule as defender retreat should be cool.

I bought the same types of pieces from Rolco a few years ago:

They are indeed a bit big, but they look good.  The tanks and subs are clones of pieces that were originally designed for the Supremacy board game.  I also bought some of the Rolco rocket pieces in white: laid on their sides rather than vertically, they make pretty good atomic bomb pieces.

Yeah use the ones from 1942. They’d be fairly cheap (I think, afterall I’m not a buiseness man) and better looking than the crappy one we have right now. Hey I’d even be happy with AA colored to each nation’s color (black for Germany, Green for USA, etc.

@onetthome:

These seem pretty cool, I’ll be sure to print the rules. I’m not seeing any rules for the Pacific though  :|

I appreciate the compliments from you and from Georgemak!

I’m currently putting the final touches on another rules set–a more advanced one. As is also the case for the rules set under discussion, this rules set is designed with a global war in mind. But that being said, I wouldn’t object to a custom map designer creating a Pacific scenario.

Every time I create a rules set like this, I try to build something generic enough that a custom map designer will have a lot of room in which to work. Working within the general framework, a custom map designer could create his own starting map, nations list, national advantages, disadvantages, and available technologies for each nation, starting unit setup, and other adjustments. The rules set is intended to give map designers plenty of room in which to exercise their creativity.

But my greatest current need is for a software developer. If anyone here is a developer or knows a developer who might be interested in something like this, please PM me.
