I saw your post sitting so long I registered to give you a few pointers on maps. Most if not all the WotC map packs are themed in some way. Originally they were 2" hexes but were changed some time ago. The map packs you mentioned are themed as follows: North Africa - 3 Desert maps and on reverse side 3 jungle maps. Eastern Front - 3 town/factory maps and on the reverse side 3 Russian steppes maps. There are two starters, the one in the cardboard box is the old one and contains 12mm mini’s and 2" hex maps. the new starter is in a blister pack and has 15mm mini’s and 3" hex maps. The maps in the new starter are mixed forest/hills/clear. The rules and revised cards are downloadable through the WotC site.
Axis & Allies Miniatures Set 4: D-Day

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

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?

this post is dead and buried. Most people go to formini now. Much more traffic.
