I once sat next to a playing of J152 where the Brits had no less than 6 heroes. IiRC, they start with one. Despite a two squads of Brit infantry stacked with three heroes and a minus leader wiping out Germans in the big building like a thresher mowing wheat, the Germans won the scenario.

I would say no dash on the purple roads. A. One road is CC7-BB7-AA7. B. Another road is CC7-BB7-CC8 A Dash from CC7 to AA7 would be along the road in A. above and not across the road in B.

Played and enjoyed it. Tin cans always a favorite of mine.

Once upon a time, in Seizing The Sittang Bridge versus Gary Trezza, my DC hero won the game for me. My Japanese needed to cross grain and open ground to gain the bridge. Unfortunately, there was a 9-1 directing a MMG in a foxhole right in front of the bridge. So I banzai'd and after four MP...

I think the " regular" banzai goes into stasis, while the THH sprints forward towards his objective like Jesse Owens in a track meet. After the THH has finished his run, then the banzai resumes. The THH us free to select any target as his goal, regardless of the "regular" banzai target...

I hope that the Jpn. dummies should not need to take a PAATC. Maybe a candidate for a Perry Sez clarification. Jpn. dummies taking a PAATC obviously reveals that they are in fact dummies. So, two situations, One: Dozer enters hex with two Jpn ??. Dummies must take a PAATC. Dozer now knows...

The Johnson and Johnson one shot non-refrigerated vaccine looks like the way to go.

20,000 fake US drivers licenses were seized at O'Hara Airport in one shipment inbound from Hong Kong. This other article talks about fake covid vaccination documentation on sale for $20 - https://www.infosecurity-magazine.com/news/scammers-sell-fake-covid19/ Herd immunity is the cure.

PTO scenario with light jungle. Two Japanese dummy units in a light jungle hex. An armored Dozer overruns the two dummies. Normally, a Japanese infantry unit need not take a PAATC to remain concealed versus the overrun. We played that the Japanese dummies need not take a PAATC also. Seemed...

Looking at AP172 - Hickory Lickin'. The German setup south/east of hexgrain 46GG9-T2-53N0 doesn't make sense to me. Errata? Rich

I liked CH167 - The Warlord's Estate. It was in the ASL Open one year, so playings are at 15 wins per side. Looks like a beer and pretzels scenario, but there is more subtlety. How can you not like the Chinese warlord himself riding into battle in an armored car.

Wow, no continuous slopes on alpine hills! Sure that I played that one incorrectly several times.

Rich Domovic's Germans defeat Craig Houliston's partisan/Italian force in Roma2 - Second Hand News. Good fast paced game which saw fortunes seesaw throughout. The final seesaw went the German way with an allied "10" failing to capture a badly outnumbered 238 for the win. Eighteen German EVP...

Always a well organized good time with interesting scenarios. I enjoyed the last FTF Canadian Open in Ottawa and also enjoyed last year's VASL version. Just registered!

Thanks, Carl for running a smooth tourney. I got to play several gamers that I do not normally play. Rich
