FTC 8

[benj]

Something like that, but your mileage may vary. ;-)

We already tried to setup a real e-commerce tool and went as far as a prototype, but as the products are sent from a variety of places (France, Cambodia), it was a nightmare to handle fair shipping costs.

No problem, I'll send Xavier an email then

The information on the scenarios is very helpful. I am curious about the articles. What are the topics?

Hi ,

Err... do you mean I can really order and pay directly, or is it still I order, then I exchange emails with Xavier, he sends the pack then loses my payment and we have more email exchanges until I've really paid for the product?

Yes, more or less it will be like you wrote Philippe

Give me a few days to return to Europe and I will start shipping FTC 8.

Best,

X

Hi,

The information on the scenarios is very helpful. I am curious about the articles. What are the topics?

The Free French, the Panzer Brigades 1944, 10 questions to Psycho, map 55, Luneville historical article and linked scenarios, a small article about Moscow's armor museum, a long one about KGS and a bibliography. I think that's it, but IMO the best are the scenarios. Really enjoyed developping "Alsatian Verdun", a biggie with plenty of stuff, as well as Lionel's Luneville scenarios.

Best,

X

Xavier scrambles to send the goodies out first and then followup with an invoice afterwards. He cares about the hobby more than the business and it is clearly apparent in his actions.

Not that it ever crossed my mind but given what I know about Xavier it's probably one of the worst ideas to stiff him on payments anyway ...

PS .. I am ordering this together with a few other items from BattleSchool

Might be quite true. He knows where you live, and he travels a lot.

Put my order in through Gamer's Armory today. Looking forward to it. Thanks X.

Got my FTC in the mail today; promptly connected to Paypal to, finally, pay for it (sorry X.)

 

[Brad M-V]

Same happened to me when I ordered Kampfgruppe Scherer from them, it showed up in the mail before I paid for it as well. It's impossible for us to say anything negative about them now, they've boughten our silence! ;-)

As did I. The quality of the LFT products is top notch.

 

[william.stoppel]

I got my copy (as well as Lone canuck’s Anzio Pack) today from Gamer’s Armory! Thx Scott. Great service as always!

 

[Jeffrey D Myers]

Hopefully mine will be waiting for me in the office tomorrow....

 

[KhandidGamera]

Got mine this week from Gamer's Armory, great service that you can set a watch to from Scott as always.

To X and the LFT crew: Formidable! Première qualité comme toujours.
(Hope google translate doesn't betray me here).

 

[Jeffrey D Myers]

Thank you, Xavier, mine was indeed waiting for me, and both articles and scenarios look stunning.

Particularly happy about the KGS materials, as that is what I have been playing face-to-face at work for some time.

Very nice looking pack with very interesting scenarios! I always like the new counter art depicted as well as the colorized map setup.

Q: RE: FT223 The Kings Of Bollersdorf

Your map depictions always show the terrain after SSR modifications are made, and Grain is always Plowed Fields in April. The map depiction shows all the Grain as in-season. Should it be considered Grain or Plowed Fields? [I ask because FT221 Independance Day is also set in April, shows the grain as Plowed Fields on the maps, and SSRs (1) that "Grain (plowed) is Bog Terrain (D8.2)".]

So, for FT223, is the map depiction incorrect, or was Grain meant to be in-season?

Thanks!

 

[Xavier 658]

Thanks for your kind words and my bad on that one: should be considered Plowed Fields, the depiction is wrong and I am the one who laid it out.

All the best,

X

I have just received my copy of FTC 8 and I am very pleased!
In the fine tradition of Kampfgruppe Scherer and Operation Chariot, this is one of the most aesthetically pleasing and professionally produced ASL products which I own.

As a bonus, I was very excited to see the Kohima and Warsaw uprising map art work and the announcement of LFT 14 (Italians!) in the future.
LFT is my new 'auto-buy' as is BFP.I
I just hope I can track down a copy of LFT 12 (Crimea) before it becomes extinct!

If it's Crimea that you want, then it's issue 13. SCG (England) has it.

Yuri0352, if you live in the States like I do, have no qualms whatsoever ordering overseas from SCG. Paul provided myself the same suggestion several years ago, and I received prompt and accurate service from them. I liked the way their website does the currency conversion for you.
