    elevations - lighter to darker

    Maybe my eyes are starting to get buggy with age but is the general rule that the lighter the color on the map, the lower the elevation? I.e. lightest green level 0, a shade darker, level 1, etc. (unless defined by the module or the SSR? I know this is basic, but I am trying to figure out...

    Ideas from The Last Hundred Yards

    Having purchased and played LHY, I was just wondering if anyone thought that the initiative and coordination rules might be suitable for adapting to ASL. Seems to me an easy add-on without ruining the elegance and realism of the system. Comments, anyone?

    Fox Strikes Back or El Alamein (second edition of Ruweisat Ridge)?

    If you had the chance to buy either which would you choose? Fox Strikes Back has the extended map but is more expensive. Plus, the only Italians I have are from the newest SKs and expansions. Are there enough? Thanks! Chris

    PL campaign question

    Got another campaign question that doesn't seem to be answered by PL or the Gembloux module. This is my first campaign game ever and I am assuming that the initial orders of battle have to be purchased - they are not free. Am I right?

    Gembloux question

    Hi all! I'm looking at the campaign rules and cannot figure out what is meant by "Attack Option." I've searched in vain for an explanation. I'm sure I am not seeing it. Thanks all!

    purchase suggestions

    Well, I have some discretionary cash and I want to probe the mind of your more experienced players. What is, in your point of view (and I know they will vary!) indispensible for the ASL player? I already have the following Pocket ruleboo, LFT rat pocket charts, BV, Yanks, CoB, Gung Ho, WoA...

    pocket edition vs. big book

    Hi all! I have the old ASL rulebook, some updated pages, the pocket edition, and the LFT rat pocket charts (2nd edition). I have been mulling over just getting the current binder edition of the rule book. Since I have the pocket edition and the charts, would it be a worthy investment?
