    New custom Turn/Reinforcement/Phase Wheel markers?

    Just to clarify a couple of things. The Insignia of British 7th Armoured Division was not in fact a kangaroo but a Jerboa (the "Desert Rat") the first shown is the version used from 1940, the second from late 1943 onwards to make it less like a Kangaroo. As for the NZ insignia, The Kiwi was...

    Searching and Defensive First Fire

    Two different situations: Residual FP that affects the searching unit in its own location upon MF expenditure to perform the search. - Resolved upon Movement expenditure A searched location (not necessarily the location that the searching unit is in) that contains Residual FP - Resolved as...

    Japanese Light Mortar range and Chinese MMG B# errors in 3.7.0

    A couple of things that cropped up today in our first usage of 3.7.0 for a PTO scenario: Japanese Light Mortar is showing range: 2-13 instead 1-16 Chinese 4-10 MMG is missing the B11 notation Hope this helps

    Either/Or Game

    In ASL, I'll take the anti-infantry abilities of the Tiger 1(L): 88mm HE, the MGs (same as the Panther) Higher morale, no Stall, and the extra shot potential of the APCR in '44. PIAT or Baz 44?

    Frozen / Flooded stream

    Context is everything, but a lot of people don't read the blurbs so I still say it needs to be clearly stated.

    Frozen / Flooded stream

    I aggree on all counts, as it is currently written, the SSR lacks enough clarity to put the issue to rest. I mean SSRs are the only way under the rules you can have non-frozen streams when Ground or Deep snow are in effect. (Not an uncommon situation, especially in the early spring)

    Frozen / Flooded stream

    A flooded stream is not necessarily frozen, and the SSR leaves it unclear whether the stream is to be considered both frozen and flooded. I agree it should be frozen and because it's specified as flooded that raises it to level 0 (probably the intent of the SSR) but what if the intent is that...

    Frozen / Flooded stream

    where it gets confusing is that it could be argued that the SSR overrides the Chapter E rule, because that is what SSRs do.

    VASL6.7.0 is released

    But as the opponent, I'm only seeing one counter at all. This might be a bug due to one iteration of it one of my opponents changing from 6.6.9 to 6.7.0 between sessions but it also happened when I started a new game with both of us using 6.7.0 until we both unchecked the option, but as you can...

    VASL6.7.0 is released

    Way to completely miss the point. I dislike having a single concealment counter replacing any number of real or dummy counters on the map, especially as that changes the fundamental rule of dummy and concealment counters, and requires you to alter the number of the OB given Dummy counters in a...

    6.7 Opel Blitz bug

    As a former beetle owner, I didn't really pay attention to it whether it was there or not. I took a whole day once for me to realise it had been borrowed. Kubelwagen is just an army surplus version of the same issue.

    Translucent Wall Advantage counter

    I use them more frequently than I should but that's more to re-emphasise Mandatory WA because people miss that, especially with Bocage LOS

    VASL6.7.0 is released

    False Analogy - HIP units aren't set up onboard in Face To Face either. Part of the skill of ASL is misdirection, eliminating a significant aspect of that by eliminating dummy stacks, especially reducing scenario mandated OBs contrary to the how the rules for concealment/dummy counters operate...

    Will tariffs effect the cost of ASL?

    It ain't just US 401Ks that are feeling the pinch. Australian Superannuation managed investments, NZ Kiwsaver Retirements and a whole lot of other managed funds worldwide are getting tanked on a level not seen since 2008. Although I've not seen any investment options locked down like the Bricks...

    VASL6.7.0 is released

    so basically you're making VASL not play like the actual game. Got it.

    VASL6.7.0 is released

    so 12 Scenario OB given dummy counters will equal 12 diffrent dummy stacks - that can't be right

    The A-Z of ASL and WWII

    Force Z from Singapore, arrogance and incompetence encapsulated in one single squadron.
