This looks kind of cool, actually, even if it is basically Fortress America meets Axis & Allies. What's really getting me interested are the stretch goal game pieces, such as:



Looks like they might fall short of this goal as there's only six days left and they're about seven grand short. Hopefully they'll succeed, who knows.

Nefaro

"Americaaaa!  F**k Yeah!!!"

:P

That really does scream Axis & Allies.

Staggerwing

That doesn't look right for the HoXVIII. From the size of the cockpit outline it looks too small. Also, it was to be a true flying wing such as the YB49 with no vertical stabilizer at all.

Yeah, I know...but still, it and the other pieces are pretty cool.

I was wondering that, too.

Apparently it's in production at $99 a copy. You want to reach out to them to see if they can get us a review copy? I don't want to overstep my bounds.

I mean, I'd be glad to do it if it'll save you time. I don't want to contact them if you've already done it/are going to do it though. Don't want to confuse them. :)
