My friend is an abbreviation freak. I think she probably abbreviates everything she can. So, the other day I was thinking, 'Y'know, I could probably rope her into ASL just by the abbreviations/acronyms used...' So, I issue a challenge to you all: create the best, most realistic AAR you can...

I was just thinking. Some have been waiting 14 years for this thing. What will happen when it is published? Sure, there will be other things we will no doubt complain about and egg on MMP about, but nothing will match that of AoO. After careful consideration of these circumstances, I vote...

Good point, Scott. I like getting my stuff in nice pristine condition if possible, but hope to think I wouldn't be complaining about a ding on the box... Then again, we are dealing with ASLers. Not exactly anything but a breeding ground for insanity!

The winner recently purchased a 1st Ed ASLRB for $50, too. I feel sorry for the poor chap. Someone ought to let him know what going prices for things really are. :(

Nah, I doubt it. The Finns will be re-released in HP. But I guess there'll be some insane people out there who have a strange longing to own old versions.

That's insane. I actually lucked out and got my J2 from the local shop while it was a few months (probably more, actually) into its OOP-status. Wish I had been able to pick up two!

That was my post right above. I just checked to see if he'd retracted and it looks like he hasn't.

Yeah, have ALL the HASLs, too. So, from here on out it's Action Packs, Zines, and the HSASLs; I guess DASLs, too.

Realizing I'll only be able to play half the scenarios due to my sparse core-module-only board collection, I'm looking to purchase one of the HS. It seems to me OV was better received than OWT. Is there any reality to my unscientific observations? Basically, which of the two is the better buy?

The only game in the system I have is SJW. I never really got around to playing much of it. Frankly, that particular game is way too sparse density-wise for my tastes. You've got essentially one corps (5-10 units) per side marching up and down 3 full-size maps. Not my cup of tea. The actual...

As soon as my ASLRB comes back from the printers and arrives on my doorstep it'll be bound somehow. I've been bouncing back and forth between the spiral binding and the hardback binding; can't decide. I'll also probably be PDF'ing it or maybe even CHM'ing it for easy VASL access, more...

Has anyone considered dropping him an e-mail? I mean, maybe there isn't much that can be done, but perhaps a threat of bad press or something. Heck, I'd be up for e-mailing any bidders warning them of what they're getting themselves into.

Yeah, I last talked to him on the 23d or so, and he said he'd be out until the end of March. Or at least that was when any items would ship that were on his plate when he got back.

Do you mean 12 countersheets? 16 seemed really waaay too much, so I checked MMP's site and it says 12. I'm not sure how much sheets are, but otherwise, I'm placing the rest of the contents at ~$75. The biggies are the boards, of course, at $48.

Arggh!! Darn you to heck!! :P I guess I'm left to taking my chances on eBay.

Yeah, I'm currently looking for a copy, too. Every on-line vendor I could find that ever at one time sold DB seems to be out of stock. If you find a vendor with multiple copies, please let me know!

How does it compare to Lock N Load, if you're familiar with that game? That seems to be the ASL of Viet Nam from all that I'm hearing from those that have played it.

Sorry that should have been in 'decline in players' like 'division' as it was something that Scott claimed has since happened.

I'm wondering how Scott has come to the conclusion that the 'divisions' or the decline in players was caused at all by Curt... And as far as ATS' 'competition' somehow being Curt's fault, too, well... that's stretching the facts worse than silly putty. As for the hatred, I don't hate anyone...

Les, Take a look at the MMP pre-order page at the map-less AoO. If you want AoO mapless, you're more than free to get it. And it'll only cost you $48. There it will also tell you what all this set contains: 6 (not 2 or 3) countersheets, Chapter H, 12 scenarios, and overlays. Certainly, this...
