I just came across this the other day. It looks to be really fun and I'm sure that some of my fellow wargamers will be painting and customizing the pieces.

There's a few online stores that are offering discounts for pre-orders. Thoughthammer.com and thewarstore.com

The box is supposed to be 2' wide!! This is going to be one big "army set".

Enjoy!!

Cool, they are releasing this too which also looks interesting..

Look closely at the cards.. Appears there are plane cards and then maneuver cards that fit together.

I have the Axis and Allies miniatures game first on my to-get list, but if that goes well these would make nice followups.

Very cool! Looks I might just have to reform the old lunch-time Axis and Allies group here at work! Boys, we've got a new war to fight!

I also read that this game weighs over 10lbs.

I hope that they hurry up and post the rules on their site.

I like the idea of being able to customize your squads on a single base Curt. Might have to get this one too.

It's supposed to be released 1/2007. I've already pre-ordered mine for thewarstore.com. Once the UPS man brings it, I'll post a review on the rules and contents.

I'm hoping that the map will be compatible with A&A minis.
