I got onto VASL for the first time last night and discovered 2 things. 1) Rodney Kinney should never ever have to buy his own drinks at a tournament. Ever. (He does play, right?) 2) Man, do I need voice software. So, opinions? What's good? What stinks? I've heard of Roger Wilco...

Keith, Brian, Sorry Keith & Brian: Forgive me for shooting back too fast.... I do understand the relatively thankless position y'all are in. And I do understand the pricing issues. And as for "friends who run hobby stores," this isn't a guy who I buy stuff from. This is a friend who I...

.... Implying I'm blowing smoke? I sent Keith the details. I'm NOT blowing smoke when I say I'm rooting for you guys. S

Bypassing Retail When you bypass retail does it have to be by a counter's width? Unfortunately, MMP has inadvertantly already done this to some extent. I have a friend who runs a hobby shop. None of their distributors will carry ASL right now because there are no basic products in print...

I didn't mean to gripe.... Ok, It's my initials and birthday. AIM handle originally, now use it other places, pretty common on AIM. Sheesh. :wink: (And as for you, MarkDV, you just think you're a bigshot cause you got two capital letters in your last name!) If I seemed like I was griping...

Radical Ideas and Kind Words SSA415: Initials and Birthday.... Spencer Sallee Armstrong April 15 Jeff: I appreciate the kind words, but even I'm not even sure I like "my" idea, but the current system simply is not working. Even I know potential players (some around my age) and they are being...

Dinosaurs & a Radical? suggestion Whoever said we're dinosaurs is right. I'm 26 and I'm the youngest ASLer I know. My best friend is 28. I figure I'm going to start watching obituaries and cleaning up on your estate sales in a few years.... But boardgames beyond "german games" are dying...

FORUMS And can somebody tell me why this idiot posted this in RULES? :oops: Clearly, this belongs in GENERAL. Nat, help? S

My free time is valuable to me, but I've also read that the precision dice aren't much better in reality than any others. Also, it's not really just $15. For ASL it's four colors minimum, so think $60 to start. As a lifelong gamer, I have tons of dice, and as an accountant I have a mental...

There's a topic going on the ML about Dicebot. I don't play VASL (yet!) but I am interested in testing my (real) dice. Someone once gave me a list of distributions based on 250-300 rolls per die, IIRC, that would let you know if a die was "fair" with like 95% accuracy. Anybody got anything...

Plano Ziplock Combo I use a combo of Plano 3701s and 3750s? (6*4=24 compartments). All my vehicles and guns go into small ziplock type bags (got the perfect size, holds 6 5/8" counters flat), these are then stored in the 24 Compartment planos, sorted by MPs/MAs.... They store flat in the...

Re: D3 Played it twice, once each side, both playings have resulted in German wins, though both to a more experienced player and I did have incredible dice..... :?: What is it about the platoon rules that make you say that? I recall feeling them a hindrance to the Russians? Should read...

D3 This scenario provided my greatest ROF moment ever in ASL. As the Germs, one of the tanks with a 2 ROF went crazy and killed five (5!) Russian tanks in one DFF.... Scenario is a blast. Great final exam on learning tank rules, too. S
