Got it. Thanks Vic.

 

[clubby]

Yay

 

[Vic Provost]

Enjoy guys! 4 pretty different scenarios that were little puzzles in playtest and all were very tight in our playings, I hope you all have as much fun with them as we did. Carl has a nice part 1 of his look at the Desert in ASL. Glad we had a scenario ready to go with it. Roll low!

 

[DonWPetros]

Got it, Vic - nice stuff!
Pipcorn's Attempt looks especially cool..
Don

 

[Vic Provost]

Yeah, another nice issue we are pretty proud of, Pipkorn is a killer scenario, who hits who first amongst the heavy tanks will go a long way toward who wins that one but beware SS with 1945 PFs, The Russian armor has that to worry about as well. Fun stuff, roll low.

Hello again, I've been at it since early this AM so I'm turning off the computer and going to relax, I'll answer any/all questions about anything Dispatch #57 tomorrow AM. Enjoy!

Was very excited to see the first of Carl's articles on the desert! Can't wait for 58 and 59 to round out the trilogy.

Hopeful his article series might revitalize some interest in desert since I'd really like to play some!

 

[fenyan]

Also excited for Carl's article on DTO and its sequel, and for the DTO scenario as well. Also looking forward to playing Pipkorn.

My FTF friend and I have been playing Infantry & SW scenarios.
St. Oedenrode looks like our kind of scenario.

Great job as always, Vic and co. And what a nice "blast from the past" surprise!

 

[Vic Provost]

Thanks for the positive feedback guys, from what I see already, the Desert Article will be a big hit with many, the Desert has been ignored long enough, time to get out of the late war, urban nightmare we have been stuck in and get out in the void space that makes the Desert as challenging as it can be in ASL, you have to make the best of what little cover you come across. Have fun with it and enjoy, Vic.

Still love Mark Nixon's article in 89 Annual: Gunned-Up in the Desert.

Still love Mark Nixon's article in 89 Annual: Gunned-Up in the Desert.

Don't encourage him ;-). All kidding aside, it was a classic.

 

[Jplott94]

Many thanks! Got mine just fine! Resubscription payment forwarded!

You bet Dave, when Carl said he was doing the Desert, Tom had Duel In the Desert in his back pocket as we saved it after Contrary and forgot about until all these years later. It playtested fine way back when and I put it into VASL to double check it and you can see this can still go a bunch of different ways. It is all up to the skill of the players and the damn dice. (Who got me good today in Raid On Rodimtsev, the less said about what happened, the better). But no multiple FTs or DCs to ruin your day out in the desert sun, just LOS forever. Have at it!

 

[Jeffrey D Myers]

I think that View from the Trenches also had some good desert articles long ago. At least my brain recalls learning the rules mainly from them....
