RE: New Series: Imperial Grenadier - patman - 04-02-2015
I have the sooty printings of Lehr and Kursk South Flank. The counters seem a bit less bright than they would be without soot, but still nice. I also have the laser Marianas set, very nice! I have the old Saipan with die-cut counters and dark maps. I actually love the maps the way they are, but I look forward to having the non-supermen (and laser-cut) Marine counters when the Golden Journal counters come in with my Secret Treasures.
I will be holding off on Army at Dawn until the wallet recovers (from the Treasures and the 3 boxes I ordered last month in the prerelease frenzy).

Yeah, $200 is my absolute limit. If I get Matilda, Nihon, and PoE, plus Saipan and Marianas, as well as the Golden Journal sets, I'm looking at $202. At least shipping would be free, but then I can't get the divisional sets and I would have to put Army at Dawn on the back burner. So frustrated....

The new Saipan is to be die-cut, the old was laser cut.
There has been discussion of an expansion of the SGWAS milieu into Pg for over a year now. The description was fairly straight on, though I'd expect further developments of the BT line beyond the historical BT-7 and no T-34's in 1940 (the year of the Czarist invasion of Poland). Keep in mind, an invasion from Russia into central europe have the advantage of a well-developed road net, and manueverability would go to the tanks with the best road wheels!

Oops, my bad, yes my dark-mapped Saipan had the laser-cut counters. I must have been remembering the markers.
Yeah, I agree there shouldn't be T-34s in SGWAS-timeline 1940, and they probably should appear somewhat later than in our timeline given the shorter overall time-at-war in the alternate timeline.
RE: New Series: Imperial Grenadier - ParaMarine - 08-08-2015
How short is the other timeline, exactly? I don't know what I'm missing but I didn't think it was answered. Better to leave it open-ended. In any case, with the stakes being lower, I can see the Kaiser being a fan of excess and continuing to produce landships. I would assume that Germany retains air superiority through the conflict anyway.
Whether the Russians get T-34s or not is a good question. I say 'why not?' They had huge potential anyway. Stalin got ahold of a massive industrial power, but I don't think a vigorous Czar would have had any less power to do this.
