ImHO buy the original core set. Even if you pay $100-150 for it. The revised set is good, but not as great of value. I bought both because there are no repeats between the two. If you buy revised set, you will be spending the extra $30 on the game tile set anyhow because posters are junk inthe long run.

The containers are definitely AT-43. What a sweet game. The concrete barriers are from AT-43, well atleast some of them are. The sandbags and walls are from my local hobby store. And my ruined buildings are the Imperial Sector from Warhammer 40k. I have other bunkers and terrain from AT-43 that are awesome, but I didn't put them on the board.

I wasn't talking about a full scale Hindlinberg Blimp. Something much smaller in that style. One that might cover 2 squares on the board. Like a 1 man attack craft. A full blown passenger liner blimp may as well be a 747.

Good ideas. I they move around its gonna piss me off. I love the game Scrabble but can't play it on a board because the freaking tiles move around.

And also use some plasticard to convert a plastic Easter egg into an atomic bomb for an allied objective marker.

Anyone have a spare Bazooka Joe to convert into Indiana Jones with a whip? And then since the Axis has the Totenkampf hero that looks sort of like the Hellboy Assasin, what about converting a Rhino into a Hellboy?!

I was just thinking of converting up an Ark of the Covenant and having 2 storm grenadiers carry it. Maybe I'm crazy.

After making that post I went out on a near-futile trip to find a Focke-Wolf 190 in 1:48 scale at 9:00pm on a Sunday night. IT would have been too easy if the hobby stores were open. So I went to Wal Mart, and to my surprise they didn't have a single model kit of anything. Not even a car. I even asked an they said they stopped carrying them at this location. So I gave up and went to the grocery store on the way home. Thats where I bumped into a 1:72 scale Me 109. For $6.99 I was going to try to make anything work. I was thinking the smaller scale might work well as a skimmer more so than a fighter plane. I took it home and hit the parts bin. I pulled out a Sentinel walker, a Necron Heavy Destroyer, a Storm Grenadier (R.I.P), and various Knick-knacks. Although I am not done, I feel like I accomplished enough that I can finally go to sleep without tossing and turning thinking about hacking up a model kit the next day. It's a crazy fit on the 1:72 scale but I get to laugh along with you. It's a home brew. That's for sure. If tanks can walk, then planes can hover. Let's break all the rules!

I would like to use a Focke-Wolf 190 as a start for a project. I'm going to remove the propeller and make the nose a bit more like a jet. Probably easier said than done. The Salamander looks like an easy start for a VK model.

Loophole Master said: That looks perfect. If it were me, though, I'd try to spice it up a bit. Don't leave a standard mustang, but add some extra bits to give it that "Weird WW2" feel. I was thinking of a 1:48 scale German craft with shorter and angled wings that looks like it should hover too. Otherwise you would need to factor in too much manueverability.

I think that the Axis should come out with a Zepplin attack craft. The SSU gets a Hind-like chopper, I think the Blimp would be appropriate. Plus we know they are due for some rocket troops.

Should they be printed up on photo paper, or just printer paper?

I typically paint grunts like him to look good from across the table. That's why the contrasts are a bit more exaggerated than most are used to. Heroes I typically paint for up close.

Lska said: Very nice job, as you say not all the details are well seen here but work on the base is pure awsome! I must say i'm not a fan of the red pice of material below the coat, but still the uniform look good. I did the red and white on the bottom as my little homage to my flamboyant colors that I love. It's hard for me to sit and paint in such muddy colors. I'm already colorblind as it is! I know I showed you some flamboyant models before, but an entire unit is something to see lol.

I cannot preregister for just Saturday on the site. That's the only day I am going. Do I just have to pay at the door?

I would like to see an attachments box that gives you 3-5 troopers equipped with other weapons to swap out in my Ranger Squads.

Nice! I like the winter trees and stuff. You've definitely painted more of your stuff than me. Are those barricades the downloadable ones your print out and glue together?

The giant box of units. I have way too many little troops. Inshould get armor 3 command and the hero boxes. Then maybe large walkers.

I got bored and decided to set up a 5 x 5 table with terrain for a sort of urban brawl. I wanted to see both of my Allies and Axis armies out ofthe boxes. Its so big it was starting to look like a 40k game. I guess I am on my way to a Dust Warfare army.

I really do wish I had a better camera. There is a lot of highlighting blending and shading that dies not appear in the photos.
