The rules typically don't "handle" non-official scenarios/products/whatever.
So, some players will be playing with AA armaments while other GROGNADS will be playing without the AA armaments?This is not what D1.84 stipulates and repeating your opinion on this thread will not change the rule. I'll stick to it.
I can only tell you what I do when play-testing a scenario. I will look at the "Official" published module numbers provided and reference that in my AAR remarks to the designer as they may want to address any inconsistencies with their published OBs as given. They then can address the situation with a revised OB, an SSR, include additional counters along with their product, or choose to ignore the differences as being of little or no consequence no matter how it's played. If I (or we) feel it may have a material impact on the outcome of the game, we will play the game both ways by adding in and deleting the optional armaments appropriately to see if it really impacts balance at all in our estimation.So, some players will be playing with AA armaments while other GROGNADS will be playing without the AA armaments?
Don't you think that a bit odd?
I only have the one.How many of ASL players in their 50s or 60s do not have multiple copies of at least Beyond Valor?
Just one for me. First edition at that.I only have the one.

Doesn't make a difference. A scenario designer should be aware of "official" counter limits in a basic kit and not cater to an expected number of players that have multiple sets or additional counters from whatever source. If They fail to address the issue by SSR or noting different outlays of armaments for vehicles in the OB, if continued play reveals a balance issue with the scenario that may or may not be blamed upon using optionally armed units (or even in some cases optional units entirely), that's on the designer & publisher. I personally would not include such a poorly researched scenario presentation for inclusion in a tournament setting usually, nor would I consider it a very professional approach to a scenario presentation.How many of ASL players in their 50s or 60s do not have multiple copies of at least Beyond Valor? I can see that those new to the game have not the T-26s needed. Tim
I for one do not. I have only* my BV from 1989.How many of ASL players in their 50s or 60s do not have multiple copies of at least Beyond Valor? I can see that those new to the game have not the T-26s needed. Tim

Oh, you mean you lent your kit to Paul M. Weir! ........ I made the error of lending out my ASL collection to an insane man with cats. Counters were lost or destroyed. .... Tim
Amen.Guys, are you playing the game, or is the game playing you?
A photocopier is your friend. Be men, not Devo.But if you need 2 more T26-33's with no CMGs, use any other unit counter or a blank counter and treat it as the necessary unit.
Hum? Am I surrounded by old people?!How many of ASL players in their 50s or 60s do not have multiple copies of at least Beyond Valor? I can see that those new to the game have not the T-26s needed. Tim

"Today I am writing you a long letter, because I do not have the time to write a short one."Also I think this thread title is akin to Pearl Jam's "Elderly Woman..." in that it is the longest in the ASL catalogue of thread title names...but von M has to be precise...
