Greetings from the Bunker and hello to all at the Forum.
I can Finally report that Dispatches from the Bunker #25
has indeed shipped after several weeks delay and unfortunate
equipment failures. (Big sigh of relief
I had enough printed
up for the Bunker Bash last month and now all my subscribers
will finally get a look at what is our 10th anniversary issue.
We have 3 good looking scenarios as usual with details
below. Our own Jim Torkelson has yet another excellent
scenario analysis, this one on HOBs OB8 Bloody Bobruisk.
Our Tactical Tips guru Carl Nogueira continues more Terrain
mayhem in the final segment on Fire in his Making a Mess
Tactical Tips Series. I have local tourney news as usual.
The Scenarios we have lined up are:
Acorns in the Fire: Andy Clarke brings us an ETO combined
arms action from New Years Day '45 with a company of GIs
supported by 4 Shermans trying to clear a German defense,
aided by a couple PzIVJ panzers, from the Board 19 crossroads.
The US needs to make maximum use of its SMOKE and
Firepower advantage to clean up this pocket of die hard defenders.
Looks like this could be on many tourney lists down the line.
Housing Crash: Ralph McDonald brings us more Eastern Front
nastiness as a company of Ubermen SS 8-3-8 Assault Engineers
crashes into a reinforced company of Russian Riflemen on Deluxe
Boards b & d. Taking buildings on the other side of the SSR Anti-
tank Ditch is the German Mission and the Russian defenders are
in no mood to give them up. Nasty Tournament sized DASL fun.
Heroic Defense of Wake - An intense PTO slugfest that Tom
Morin has exhumed from his filing cabinet. We were going
to submit it to the venerable On All Fronts over 12 years ago.
It is the Japanese Night Assault on Wake Island 12 days
after the initial attempt to take the Island was a complete
disaster. This time they are assaulting the beach at night in this
PTO mini-monster with 2 companies worth of 4-4-8s attacking a
very mixed USA defense which has Marines, ad-hoc Naval
personnel and even civilians manning the plethora of machine
guns and ordnance available. It starts at night and sees twilight
and eventually day as the fight proceeds inland over now 8 very
hard fought turns.
For those unfamiliar with Dispatches, it is a 12 page Amateur
ASL Newsletter that comes to the greater ASL Community twice
a year, sometime in March and September courtesy of the New
England ASL Community, including the Bunker Crew and
our yasl Brothers in Southern New England. It typically contains
3 New Scenarios, Analysis of each one, a Main Article on any
aspect of the game system, Tactical Tips, ASL News and
Tournament Updates from our region. You may now view samples
