Big city buildings...we have been engineering some very clever plastics that will allow for you to take your Flames Of War table to a whole new scale as buildings get taller, longer and deeper as well as battle damaged if you want. The modular system will bring city fighting to life like never before, and no two tables need ever look the same. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LordGrumpus Posted March 28, 2015 Report Share Posted March 28, 2015 I'm all about the Pacific, I truly think it must be broken up into E/ M / Late. but I'm very excited to do some Pacific terrain. I've heard the rumblings That it's going to be infantry aces basically, but if the tanks are limited and pointed properly, it can be balanced and historical too.

lazarus Posted March 28, 2015 Report Share Posted March 28, 2015 why infantry aces? the fighting in the pacific was all on divisional scale just like the European theaters of war. points on the us tanks should not change as that would screw up the capatability with the eto lists.

LordGrumpus Posted March 29, 2015 Report Share Posted March 29, 2015 Somebody was saying how it was going to Be like infantry aces. I really don't thinkit will be at all, but I would want a book for each era. Not just one, as some are saying . Good point about the tank cost, didn't think that far ahead :) I think I need a box of Japanese troops! I'm guessing they didn't change very much. I think we'll see ambush teams.

fingolfen Posted March 30, 2015 Report Share Posted March 30, 2015 I'm really looking forward to a lot of the upcoming stuff. Pacific really sounds like a cool option. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lazarus Posted March 31, 2015 Report Share Posted March 31, 2015 that is the great thing about the Japan troops is they are pretty much the same through t the war. the big changes will be in the organization and support options. I would expect in the early and mid war they could have some very interesting air and naval gunfire options to use as well as some interesting defensive list.
