Re: CH: ASLComp Products for 2008?
I’ll number the information list for easy review:
1. ATS Personal Leaders are BACK in a short-run (fast turnaround) batch coupled with another print run. What that means is if we can fill up a half-sheet between now and December 17, 2007 we’ll print them. If not, you will NOT be billed. We may not have another batch for months so NOW is the time to reward yourself with a little holiday gift. Please note: We can do Elite Tank Commanders as well as NCO and Officer counters for all published nationalities, plus WW I, Vietnam War, and American Civil War combatants -- for those that want such counters in advance of the games from this era.
2. ASLComp Personal Leaders are also BACK, noting the same timing and nationality parameters as ‘1’ above.
3. ESCAPE FROM CHOSIN: TOKTONG PASS 1950 (ASLComp) is about to be printed AT LONG LAST. To those that already ordered, thank you. Chinese Communist Forces, US Marines in winter uniforms, the Sikorsky HO3S-1 helicopter and the M26 Pershing tank all make appearances in this new historical module.
4. AIRBORNE STAND (ASLComp) is the remake of the popular KELLAM’S BRIDGE with an all new, standard hex size map with attractive art. If you’ve been looking for Kellam’s Bridge for all these years, you’ll want to nail this historical module.
5. SURPRISED OUTSIDE OF STRASS (ATS) brings the work of another new designer, Mike Nagel, to your gaming table. Many of you may know Mike through his design “Flying Colors” and word of his upcoming ATS Attu Island design. The Hurtgen Forest is the setting for SURPRISED OUTSIDE OF STRASS and an all new 24” x 18” map brings you to the shattered village of Strass and its outskirts. It is December 1944 and the men of the 3rd Infantry Battalion of the 330th Infantry Regiment, 83rd Infantry Division are advancing out of the dark, damp Hurtgen Forest...in this perfectly playable intro module for the upcoming, massive Vossenack/Schmidt boxed game.
6. AVANTI SAVOIA! (ATS) brings the disaster of the Soviet Winter Counter Offensive of 1941 to the fore with German, Russian, and Italian combined-arms operations playing across two historical maps. All the early Barbarossa toys are there, Stug IIIB, T-26, Pz IIIG, conscripts, and more. It is December 1941 and the looming Moscow offensive has caught the Axis by surprise. They hurl Bersaglieri and Panzergrenadiers into the maelstrom while Hitler demands ‘not one step back’...while YOU, the gamer, experience what that order means to the men and machines at the sharp end in amazing detail.
7. VIRTUAL ATS has been well-received with hundreds of gamers already getting on board via registered download at our site. The feedback about this software has been positive and we aim to get more maps and combatants available in early 2007.
8. BLOODY OMAHA (ATS) is in final production and slated for a FIRM 1st quarter 2008 release.
Most of the following list is for ATS, but these will also (almost certainly) be converted from ATS into the ASLComp line and ship in 2008. The ASLComp versions will have later release dates, which gives us more R&D, playtesting room.If CH doesn't ship it before Xmas of this year, then Toktong will ship shortly after the New Year. I know of at least three others for '08:
The Spanish Legion Pack - Blue Division near Novgorod, 1941;
(Unnamed) Omaha Beach module.
Total Axis Pack 2.
