There's always one troublemaker.:)

Did you do them out of OCD or have you played so many scenarios it was no biggie?
I think he's forgotten more than most of us will ever learn, to be honest...:D

I thought only the even ones are good. Or is that Star Trek movies?

Star Trek IV an X weren't good.
It's just Star Trek IX was a steaming pile of poo, V not much better.
I don't mind I,III and VII.
Clearly II the best...VI and VIII pretty damn good.

In ASL terms Partisan and Doomed Battalions 1st ed are Star Trek insurrection!
Code of Bushido is the undiscovered country.

Probably Croix de Guerre is wrath of khaaaaan as those scenarios are all good.

What's wrong with DB?
I like early war stuff.
Partisan is still my least favorite.

Oh, definitely gonna play The Citadel again, given the choice.
Loved it.
Didn't say I won it, but thoroughly enjoyed playing.

I've done 37, according to my entries in the Scenario Archive.
I'm not sure how many more I'll actively seek out. I think I've done all the ones that have good word of mouth, and I have heaps of newer stuff that just looks more appealing.
As far as the best of the first 100, I'll cast my vote for Khamsin, which may be my all time favourite of any era. I'm one of those oddballs that really loves the desert game, and I came so close to winning the ASLOK desert mini on that scenario that I can still taste it. Just a couple of rolls and victory would have been mine...

If you're talking about the Core Module Scenarios, I've played 47of them with most being done prior to being updated. Several of the scenarios I've played several times with various opponents, but have only played a few of the updated releases (especially true of Paratrooper & Yanks scenarios, of which all but a couple have been updated-some substantially). The only ones I am quite interested in playing that I have not played before are from Partisan (if re-released & updated) & Last-Hurrah/Armies-of-Oblivion. The scenarios I had played from Last Hurrah were such stinkers and eventually had such a poor reputation, that I had never pursued playing more than a few of them and have only played one since being updated and re-released (sorely disappointed as well).

However, having said as much, if I find an opponent that wants to play any of these scenarios, I certainly wouldn't shy away from it as I'm just an ASL slut and will play most anything if either of us has an interest [EXC: Subterranean Quarry]. I doubt if I would go out of my way to play any of the core module scenarios simply for the sake of playing them all if neither of us had an interest in the situation/scenario in question.

First 100 from the modules, not first 100 published as I reckon loads would qualify for the latter. I think the only product I've done 100% of is ASLK2. Even BV3 I've only done 22 of 24.
When I started buying the core ASL modules I was pretty disappointed by the quality of the scenarios. I thought the SL, COI, COD, GI ones were much better. The Annuals, The General, the APs and DASL made up for it; but the core modules were a let down.

Except for the PTO modules - since the subject was fresh the scenarios were better for it.

I've played a LOT of ASL...

The first 100 have all been played at least twice.

Interesting thread, I seem to of only played 11 of the first 100

but I will always play what my opponent prefers, so to play all 100 depends on them :D

Only 10 out of 100. Guess I still need to get my money's worth.

83. Some of them were tournament staples or teaching scenarios, so I played at least sixteen of them 5+ times. And I ain't going back and playing the rest.
