"A&A War at Sea Task Force hit stores yesterday" Topic

For those who are interested the long awaited 1st expansion to the War at Sea miniature game has finally been released.

From what i know this set is heavy on aircraft like the Emily and Beau Fighter.

And ships like the Admiral Hipper,USS Yorktown and Musashi.

I don't have any myself right now but i plan to get some at some point,but i wanted to give a heads up to the people who game with these mini's.

Captain Gideon

I had planned to order a case, but never got around to it. I picked up three boosters at a local game shop. I pulled the IJN Zuikaku, Tirpitz, and HMS Kent. I am happy with the minis for the most part. The camoed deck on the japanese carrier looks great, but the Tirpitz paint job is pretty crappy; the distortion camo on the hull is fine, but, aside from the wash, NOTHING else is painted, not even the deck. I have to wonder if this is a factory error. I would think it SHOULD have the cool full-dazzle scheme most commonly associated with this ship (though I can't remember when/how long she bore that paint scheme). I am also less than happy with the fact that the issue of the original Bismarck sculpt's superfiring turrets not being able to 'clear' the A & Z turrets was never fixed in this 'sister ship'.

Hm.

That's why you're better off buying actual miniatures.

I really don't like the WaS stuff.
