Personally, I prefer the chips that came with 1942.2 because they have a smaller circumference, thus saving space on the board (albeit a tiny amount). However, they don’t grip together as well as any of the older types.

The website is showing the new Pac40.2 selling for £64.29 delivered. I must say, that isn’t bad at all. Couldn’t find Eur40.2 on there yet though…

Hi Wittmann, I take it you mean Pac40.2? Did you get a good bargain?  :-)

CWO Marc, thank you - that is much appreciated.  :-)

Wow, thanks a lot for these pictures CWO Marc!  :-) I for one am curious to see a pic of the new Anzac infantryman compared next to the other infantry pieces. Any chance of that please?

I wasn’t even aware that China ever could buy Tech!  :-o

Can we please update this list? Thanks.  :-)

Can I recommend that all new players put their details down in the ‘Master Find Players List’? This is really useful for players to find each other and get a game going! It’s worked for me and I’ve recently had a face-to-face game with two newcomers to the forum, which I couldn’t have done without this aid. Here’s the list, which is updated fairly regularly:

hkytown1, I’d be grateful if you could post some pics too as I’ve been hearing a lot about this ‘sharpee’ or ‘sharpeeing’ and am curious to see what it’s all about, thank you.  :-)

But if Germany has conquered all of Russia then surely she can use the old Soviet ICs? Or am I mistaken?

Not much of a success story, but I bought a 2nd copy of this game and gave it to my best friend who’s been slowly getting hooked on my AA50 and 1942SE recently. He was very grateful for the game. I did not tell him that I’d rummaged it for all the good sculpts first!  :-) (obviously I replaced them with other bits)

@ loz
1. I don’t think i will be changing it, there isn’t really enough room.

2. I can probably find a way to increase the default size by a little bit

3. Actually i don’t really like this idea

Thanks Veqryn. In response to that I would say:

1. That’s a shame. Can you at least make the scrollbar moveable? Otherwise, I can’t see all the units involved in a prospective embattled territory.

2. Thank you. I only ask that all the relevant info pertaining to a battle be immediately available to view in the combat screen, without having to move/adjust anything.

3. Why don’t you like this idea? It is intuitive and I think it would be a great improvement. Less micro-management, less time consuming.

Thanks again.

Hi Veqryn,

Any thoughts or comments on my suggestions?  :?

Many thanks,

Loz

Hey LeeCHeSSS, thanks for your answer.

Guys, I want to purchase 1 set of each of the following nations:

Germany Elite (black)
France
United Kingdom
Soviet Union
Japan
China
United States
Anzac

Upon using the Historicalboardgaming.eu I can find no way to add France, Anzac and Germany Eite to my order. Is there any way to do this?

Thanks again.  :-)

Hey guys, is there anywhere I can order FMG Combat Dice in seperate sets? I don’t want the grey Germany, or Canada, or Italy (as I already have it).

Thanks very much.

Good post knp7765, I appreciate your thoughts. I for one would certainly be interested to see the OOB 1941 Tigers compared in a photo next to the FMG Tigers, just so we can see the difference in size.

I think the lesson we all really need to take away with us is basically to not trust the photo images on the back of the boxes.  :-)

I remember when PAC and Eur 1940 were originally released here in the UK they were going for around £60-65 retail price. Somehow I’m getting the feeling that these new versions are going to be about £70-odd at least. We’ll see, eh.

Nor mine.

Sean, you’re absolutely right - I meant “Transports can defend at 1 but hits cannot be assigned to sea units”. My bad.  :-)

I like that Transports can defend at 1 but hits cannot be assigned to air units, pretty cool.
