@RisingSun I had similar experience, I was big into the naval miniatures but couldn’t afford both. I bought a lot on ebay a year or so ago and have played a few games. It is not difficult to learn especially if you are familiar with the navy side, it’s pretty similar but includes facing. I think it’s a great game and wish I had collected it some when it was active.
Axis & Allies Miniatures Set 4: D-Day
-
The French get their Somua!!!
-
About time! With the Char Bis being out, maybe the French will finallt be a fieldable army on their own w/o having to field the same stuff every single time. Yea, I’m stoked for set IV.

It should be good. Heroes might be broken but then just don’t play with them.

Except they will be the rare you get in the booster, which would suck.

It looks like heroes are uncommon. At least the preview of the first one is.
-
Thank WHATEVER they’re not all rare. I don’t plan on using heroes, so if my Rare turns out to be Rommel or something I’m going to be ticked. I’d probably melt the figure out of spite.

Hey GG, look back a few posts. Those links are already there. :-)

Preview 6 is up!

The next preview is here:
http://www.axisandallies.org/node/98The obstacles are the preview.
The barbed wire is 0.5 points. Hmm, I like this idea of having units worth 0.5 or even 4.5.
-
I think the fortifications look like poo’. I absolutely love the rules for them, but I hate the barbed wire model especially. I know they can’t do much better at that scale, but I’ll be making my own.
What do you suppose those two infantry models are? I have my theories, but they’re shaky.

The “exhausted scount” and the “desparation grenadier”? :-)
-
Are there rules for using just one hero? It makes sense to me. If you just have one hero, your opponent can decide whether it’s worth it to focus on killing him.
Obstacles being so cheap may actually make for the biggest change in playing the game.I am hoping they get a Marine hero, since the Marine infantrymen are actually a little weaker than I expected.

Two frigging Shermans! Granted, neither is American, but for the love of WotC, can we stop with the Shermans? How about the next expansion set? I propose we name it “All the M4 variants you could ever think to deploy” and be done with it.
-
I think it’s fine. As long as they have different stats and different models, I’m happy.
-
Not too sure if this has been added in already…but anyways, its the complete D-Day set. :-)
-
Holy smokes! Canadians and Buffalo soldiers! And an 88 finally!

Well that sure would be very interesting since there are so many Shermans…lol

nice bump…

So… is this board basically dead? I mean D-day was about 5 sets ago. Anyone really around here anymore, or has everyone gone to the Forumini and Underground?
