Contested Skies countries

[Italiangeneral86]

What little circle flag things are on the front of the booster boxes? I know new countries will be added but I can't make out the flag symbols on the box.

I heard that the Australians are gonna be involved in set 3

[Fast_Heinzzz]

Look like: China, France, USSR, US, UK, Germany, Italy, Japan, Romania

Sadly, I'm seeing the same thing.

If they are including the Aussie's they more than likely will either be under the UK flag (i really hope not) or will be in another Booster Set.

I would prefer for each combatant they make to have it's own "flag" so to speak.
If Poland can have it's own seperate and distinct units and "flag" or symbol on it's stat card and Booster box art, then why not Austraila, Canada, Finland, Yugoslavia, etc, etc.

When the game first came out the main selling point for me was the fact that Italy and France had been made into separate forces and not sandwiched into the German and British camps like in the board game.
Granted several expansions were made that did this and even made separate pieces, it's just not the same as buying "officially licensed and professionaly made" products.

When Set II came out and they threw in Poland, China, and Romania my spirits soared at the thought of the potential that they had to produce so many different countries and their respective units!
I have always loved Miniature wargaming but never had the time nor money to devote to playing it right. (large interchangeable maps with realistic scenery, thousands of detailed pieces painted with precision, tape measure, protractor. etc)
Now i have the means to do that via A&A Mini's and i'm hooked worse than a junkie is for smack.
Sure some units look kinda "cartoonish" and a few stats are kinda screwy, but overall i'm pleased and look forward to what's to come!
"If they make them i'll buy them"!

Not just babies anymore. Last year there was several attacks on people on Fraser Island (just off the Queensland coast for those playing at home) and not just kids, adults as well. A couple of deaths resulted.
