Thanks bob. I thought that was the case (in the video the guy mentioned perforating the line) but as I'm going to put them onto card, doesn't seem worth the ink.

Can't do anything about it though.

I have to say, I'm impressed with the quality of the print on Matte photo paper

I will do an unboxing thread when I've finished - if I get the components together (I may have an issue with that foam card as Brant pointed out)

I look forward to that, JD.

Man - this Print and Play is a lot of work!  :wow:

It can be.  :D But then you have the satisfaction of knowing you built a game with yer own hands.  O0

Judgedredd,
You are not required to mount every counter included in the game.  You need only mount that which is required for a particular scenario.  Most of the German counters are merely included for DIY scenarios.

I think you'll find GrogHeads is full of overachievers.

Thanks you.

I know - but I wouldn't feel it was complete if I didn't do them all.  ;D

I'm currently debating whether to put the "backs" on the back of the terrain cards. They don't add anything but aesthetics and making them a bit sturdier. The reason I'm debating is I might well run out of spray glue

I did put the backs onto the back of the Stat cards, weather card and VP card and they are very robust...so it might be worth it

That spray glue is damn messy! Lots of waste paper required to prevent it going onto table/work top

Looking good though so far. I haven't cut out the counters yet - I'm a bit wary after it being said it may be brittle. I will do it - just waiting for some courage  :-"

you don't even trim your counters!

I'm nearly done. The foam stuff want working out so I put the counters on card and then again so they are sturdy.

Is there really only one company of US troops? There's something like 5 or 6 companies of German troops

Yeah but the Germans have 5 different types of units and you don't use them together much, regulars, conscripts, vets, paras, engineers, etc.
For the US all you have are paras.
