Eye Candy from Kreta


Hi Guys,

Please understand that these are just amateur photos of the counters that Andy took, but thought you might like to see some.

Here are unarmed German Paratroopers and aircraft counters.

Steve is hoping to start shipping next week.

Man, we are going to have unarmed paratroopers up the yin yang!
That's not true. Now, YOU may have them up the yin yang if you're not careful when you sit down in that big tub of counters for your bath. But not me.

I do have a request. Could the ASL producers try to slow down the releases? Spread them out a bit? I've already bought two copies of VotG, Le Franc Tierer 11, Into the Rubble, and a couple of other items I can't even remember now! All this month!

Slooooooow Doooooown. :blab:

Looks like another 'must buy' item for the year.
I'll have to wait for my tax return, but I'm gettin' it!

wow, 65$ is a lot for 120 counter, map and scenarios.
FWIW -- 17 scenarios are included which makes it a fair value along with all the other stuff, i.e., CG, big maps, counters, rules. Yes, certainly not value-meal cheap, but not a rip-off either. Postage included is worth about $5.

It could be much worse. At least they are not trying to foist FREE/EXTRA stuff on us that we didn't pay for like MMP is doing with VOTG!

Whew!

Guys, VotG is going to be $75 and it contains....

A big map, 17 scenarios and Campaign games. Sound familiar? Gee, like Kreta?

Yea, but Sam.

With Kreta you are pre-ordering something that is ready to go and will be shipped in 2 weeks. With VoTG, um, uh....never mind.

How long was Kreta in development? Just curious - it must take a long time to put a monster like that together.
