    I have played through about the first half of the CG for Reluctant Enemies. It is a great complement to ASL, IMO. The concept of supply is easy to manage as a game mechanic but difficult strategically. Some of the turns go very quickly since all you can do is hunker down and build up / move...

    Hello all, First thanks to everyone, I've received so much good info on this site and others! Although I can claim lineage back to the original Squad Leader I can't say I played it enough at that time to have been an expert, but for some reason it stuck with me and recently I decided to get...
