A bunch of us here in Toronto used to make collective purchases to spread out the shipping costs. Do you have other local players you could split costs with?

A lot of mobile phone plans include free long distance. One could shudder make an old-fashioned phone call.

I like playing scenarios I've never seen before, I like the puzzle of trying to solve a problem I've never seen before. But excepting ASLOK, I'm never fast off the mark acquiring new scenarios. So I can afford to check ROAR and the Scenario Archive and look for scenarios that other people have...

I don’t think you understand what is happening here. This isn’t a stock market correction. This is the entire economic order of the past 50 years being overturned as the US decides it is no longer bound by any treaties it has signed. This will not be over in six weeks, six months or six years.

For reasons out of the scope of this forum, there's a broad Canadian consumer boycott of American goods and services going on. I expect some Canadians are putting their purchases of American-made ASL gear on hold.

Stream it live on the internet - the world deserves to see this.

(I think the producers of Pointless were concerned that viewers were going to complain that South Sudan was a real country when it wasn’t at the time of filming)

We're watching a British trivia show called Pointless - it has an interesting thing in the credits. "All facts are correct at the time of filming". Given all the other fudge factors built into the game (How long is a turn? How big is a hex? What's the bore of a British 3" mortar?), I'm ok with...

My nested ziploc system was designed so that I could carry enough counters, maps and rules for a scenario in a backpack on the back of a bicycle. It has issues, but you can drop it out of a third story window and not misplace a counter. Only punching the counters I need also lowers the amount of...

I don't know how much training the Germans got using PF's, but I'd be surprised if Allied troops ever got to fire more than one shot from the captured stocks. As long as we're here having fun with quibbling over rules that can never be implemented, I'd suggest lowered range and TH numbers for...

Fair enough - I just hate to have gear that I haven't paid the creators for.

Any chance of an electronic version?

Will there be an alternate source for people unsure if they will be crossing the border in the near future?

Going by Beevor's D-Day: The Battle for Normandy, I'd say 4-4-7's. They did not come across as an impressive formation.

Looking forward to this, I've really enjoyed the first two iterations. I'm not even going to check to make sure the Russian is accurate.

I find the ASL Discord servers to be difficult to keep up with for the written content, but I find the chat rooms to be much easier and more reliable than Skype. I haven't used Skype for months now.

Registered! The odds are very low that I'll be travelling south of the border for the foreseeable future, so I hope I will see as many ASL friends in Ottawa as possible. -Andy

I'm thinking that immobilizing one Char-B in 20 years of play was actually a pretty realistic number.

Bad news for Team USA in the World Cup, I won't be able to make it this year, so you'll have to fatten your scores on someone else. My usual driver (Jeff Wasserman) rolled a 12 and is laid up with back issues, and car rentals are insanely expensive this year. Next year for sure!

1692, according to the database. But I have to say, probably a third of those will never get played - too big, too small, too complicated, too bland, or, to be honest, too poorly rated in ROAR or the Scenario Archive. Life is too short to play dogs, I won't have time to get through all the good...
