      @Emperor_Taiki:

      @gnasape:

      Hello everyone,

      Long time reader, player and recent convert to the forum,

      I have noticed that this thread is way off track.  If you read FMG’s initial post it is to provide better playing pieces for AA (AA50 in particular).  So the normal units are being offered along with additional (premium) pieces.

      From a business point of view, each additional mold and playing piece is additional cost and it has to be absorbed by the business or the customer.  Unless you are willing to pay for it, please don’t ask for additional pieces that will not affect the AA50 game play.

      From a player’s point of view (mine), I want everything under the sun but don’t really want to pay for it (or else, I would be buying premium pieces and hand painting it like some people on the board are doing).

      Please bring this thread back on track as I have not heard from FMG regarding this project.

      I personally am disappointed when I check to see if there is any new reply to this thread and find comments that are not relevant to the project.

      These are my views and hopefully I am not the only one that feels that way.

      If anyone wants to comment on this, please start a new thread.

      Thank you,

      Loyal follower and avid AA player.

      so you dont want people talking aobut adding new peices to the game?

      but there is really nothing else to discuss. FMG has not given us any pics so what are is too be said.

      most people have already stated what new models they would like to see for each country so unless you or someone else have some new idea’s this topic is pretty much dead except for the additional unit discusion

      No, please discuss, but start a new thread as this was originally for the FMG AA50 playing pieces.

      Has anyone else thought that maybe FMG has been scared away by the discussion on this thread?

      From my perspective, it is a big financial risk and undertaking but with so many people asking/adding new units with limited resources and the price initially quoted as $59.99 (subject to change?), and everyone asking for this and that and losing focus from what the original project was intended for (new, better pieces than what AA50 has to offer).

      Does a company try to please everyone or focus?  If it tries to please everyone by adding all the units, it might lead to poor quality or even worse units that no one will use, or focus on developing the core product (basic units) that players will use?  Once the product is established, additional premium units can be added on (and I’m sure FMG would love everyone’s inputs when the time comes) and the better units will be welcomed/embraced by the AA community.

      Thank you,

      @Zero:

      @Imperious:

      The bases should all be round and a little bit larger than AH.

      If these are dedicated A&A pieces the bases should stack integral with the chips. ~ZP

      Great idea, but which chips?  We use the chips from Revised, Europe, and Pacific when we play AA50 as there are never enough chips that came with AA50.

      Please put me down for 1 set for now, I will probably get three more for my friends and my unopened box.

      Please let me know how we can prepay!

      It’s funny, one of my friends is color blind and he had the hardest time with Chinese and Russian or Italian infantry as to him they looked the same.  We had to use Russian infantry from AAE for Chinese, so hopefully this will make it easier for us to play.

      Great job, it saves me the trouble of cannibalizing other pieces.
