I do have answer to my own question; is there a way to get relatively cheap
figs for a game; answer, well kind of. I just bought Axis & Allies (Yeah, I
know, it has been out a while, but I've always played with someone who had the
game), and noticed a little statement in the front. People wishing to purchase
more pieces can do so for $10. I would assume that this goes for Fortress
America too. So you could easily rack up a nice collection of tanks, both
hover and tracked, APCs, soldiers of all types, VTOLs, and planes from various
time periods. At least it would help out in DSII. Now then, some creative
liscense with my Dremel tool.....

Well I know they still sell pieces of the Axis & Allies game, and
have re-released Shogun, so those peices might still be findable.

For every man, there is but one true love in his life. His only task, is to
recognize it, and cherish it for all time.

Absolutely! I took many of those old Fortress America figs and painted them
for DSII. Although I don't care for the IFVs, the hovertanks look good on the
field. Most have become the core of my FSE strike force.

IIRC, Fortress America has been out of print for a number of years now (well,
here in Oz it has been anyway). Does anyone know if Milton Bradley still sells
the pieces for the game? Or even the game itself on request? I loved it and
used to have a great time playing it.
