All Overlays Ever...?

[SgtStahler]

I used to shy away from scenarios with overlays because they seem like a pain. I am recently coming around to how a designer can subtly alter even familiar maps with a couple well placed overlays. Neat...

I dont want to open that debate though. What I would like to know is what would be the really-big-list of all the "official" overlays ever produced? And in which modules does/do/did which overlay sets come in?

I am not sure I have some of the basic overlays, although I think I should. I certainly dont have the full list of what is available in VASL I dont think...

I published an illustrated list in my book on scenario design. The following are the official products that had non-DASL overlays included:

• West of Alamein
• Code of Bushido
• Gung Ho
• Croix de Guerre
• Doomed Battalions
• Action Pack 2
• ASL Journal 4

Yeah, but it still doesn't tell ya where the durned things came from!

 

[WBRP]

What a misleading title; I thought it was going to be about scenarios/HASLs that only used overlays, like the Gaveyatwo-Toboggans PTO one.

 

[Barryrk]

I never cut out my overlays-except for the ones from GI and a couple desert ones. The rest are pristine and scanable onto cardstock when I need them. I always avoided overlay scenarioes until now...got to love modern technology!

Journal 4 had an overlay inventory (pre-AoO), and of course Reid Hutchison's list is available here: http://talk.consimworld.com/WebX?233@981.udAcercPBU3.1165@.1dd15110!enclosure=.1dd30e71
