"Tall Paul's" ENTIRE SET, detailed & painted A&A units by The "WARMACHINE TEAM"!

Japanese A&A Pacific 2nd Edition Color Match
Hey All.
If you are looking to match the default color for the Japanese, try Vallejo Liquid Acrylic 804 Transparent Orange and Model color 140 Flat Brown mixed 30 to 1 sprayed on an undercoat of 131 Orange Brown. It’s a dead match.

Hi Everyone,

Cody Dean here from Dean’s Army Guys. I wanted to share a custom Polish army I made for a client. I love getting to do unique armies for people where I can expand beyond the main 5 powers. Check it out! Email me at info@deansarmyguys.com for a quote on the custom army of your dreams!

@AlphaKappa:

I don’t like the large size of the OOB Dauntless tactical bomber piece.  I am considering replacing them with the HBG P-47 Thunderbolt or Helldiver.  What are the sizes of these pieces?   The P-47 looks bigger than a typical fighter.  Would it work as a tac?

I have the HBG P-47 fighters… they are the same size as the OOB fighters… by comparison, they are bigger than the HBG P-51, which is actually smaller than OOB fighters.  If you’re expecting the HBG P-47 to be as big as OOB Tac Bombers, you’ll be disappointed.

Very nice indeed.

Im working on a display for my HBG Minis.
But I decided to make a small table.

But i picked a different way of making it. Instead of picking out where to place tanks and etc… I played a small war game on it. Hence “Living boards” as each bored is determined by the outcome of a battle.

ORBAT
Allied-3 M4 Sherman/ 1 F-86 Sabre
OPFOR-4 T-34/ No air

Rules
Tanks
Rear- Die roll of 2
Sides -4
Front-5
Top-2
To defeat a shot you have to out roll the die.
Air support is a single sweep of 3 die. Air is called in rolling 4 die and getting 12 and up.

Turns
First 3 turns were moving. Turn 3 had the first M4 fire at a T34.
At the end of turn 3, 1 Sherman had been lost.
Turn 4 saw the loss of one T34
Turn 5 saw the loss of another M4
Turn 6 saw the loss of another T34 and a filed Allied air support call in.
Turn 7 saw no losses despite the Successful role for a Sabre air support.
Turn 8 saw the lose of the Last M4.

Result.
The Bridge leading out of town (Occupied by OPFOR) is blocked with the remains of the M4s.
The ORBAT forces lost half their strength, and must await engineers to clear the bridge.
The Bridge is still intact, but may have some damages due to the exploding tanks.
Allied forces failed to establish a front line on the other side of the bridge.
Images
Is they dont show up, right click and view image. Ill work on fixing them ASAP.
Turn 1

Turn 2

Turn 3

Turn 5

Turn 6

Turn 8

Out Come
OPFOR can push towards a Allied Airbase, where hopefully the Allies can hold to keep Air Support close (12 or Higher. If lost, the die role becomes 18 or higher.)
ORBAT
4 Allied Tanks
1 Allied Air
6 Opfor Tanks
1 Opfor Air
Any comments on how im making my displays? Also hope this is a proper area to post this customization, or would it fall in minis.

Dedo… sounds awesome, you’re a legend.  :-D

@elrojo33:

That would be my answer. Anyway, I’ll keep an eye out. If I come across some I will let you know.
Happy hunting.

Thanks much.

Paul - yeah… I applaud your stance on transport planes being separated from bombers.  I couldn’t agree with you more - my own rule is purely for simplicities sake for my 50th, it actually kinda bothers me still.  I only play A&A with my ‘old crews’ about twice a year (when I visit the states), otherwise my 50th hosts some players that haven’t played nearly as long as us - though all are interested in WWII history.  So I have to try and keep the piece differentiations to minimum.

George - no worries, they’re Italians so they should get a long with my guys  :wink:
Fantastic collection!  Like the individuality that those figs offer - I don’t own any, so are they pretty much the same size as the OOB?  Looks like it (except for the stands of course).  Gotta love those SS!  “HOLD ZE LINE!”
That one Italian bomber… would never thought that shade of orange could be pulled off, but it looks pretty cool.  Might have to give that one a try.
