ISO Markers and counters needed for play.

[Uriah Jones]

So, its been a while since I've played. I have a good grasp still of the rules and have played many times before. My son is getting old enough that he is interested in learning. But somehow over the years I misplaced my planos with all the miscellaneous counters (Prep, Def Fire, Resid. Fire, Pin's, etc...) All those extras are gone! I still have all the nationalities and equipment for each nation.

Is there a good option for replacing the basic markers? I took a look at MMP and there Starter Packs seem to not include many markers.

You could make good replacements in Paint or a similar program, then print them and glue them to cardboard.

There are sellers on eBay who sell individual counter sheets
Search for: "advanced squad leader counters".

Pick up a SK (or so) it normally has a as about any thing you need save a HASL with a lot of basic counters.

Honestly probably cheaper and easier to buy a copy of beyond valor. There's one on bgg from CLS games in Atlanta for $98. By the time you find, buy, pay for shipping for individual sheets you're over that I'm sure.

You can also contact MMP directly and see if there are individual counter sheets available. Take a look at Board Game Geek for photos. This is likely your cheapest and best quality option.

For full ASL, I think the path of "Least Pain" is getting a copy of Beyond Valor. I'd go for the 3rd edition. Like stated by the time you get the sheets you need and factor shipping in, it'll be better to spend a little more and get the BV module.

But, before that $$$ plunge, why not get Starter Kit 1 to see if he is interested enough before moving to full ASL? It's stripped-down bare essentials of ASL which is great for getting your feet wet.

Go to Boardgame Geek or the ASL Armory and figure out what counter sheets for game info counters you need form BV. Call MMP - they may have the sheets for purchase separately. They charge $9 a sheet.

Is that common knowledge? I had no idea.

I needed the updated FKAC counters from the latest production run - I have the original run before they increased the image and font sizes, and I need bigger - so I called in and got 4 of the 5. They didn't have 5 in stock as a separate sheet, so it can be hit or miss.

I got a couple of sheets from Hatten in Flames and Decision at Elst as well.

Also, watch BGG - sometimes the information is outdated. For instance, there were 6 sheets in the first run - four full and two half sheets. The latest run consolidates the two half sheets into one. So consult Hutch's files on the latest print run to confirm what you want.

Where are you? There is a good chance that a player near you has more prep fire counters than they could possibly use in their lifetime.
I just gave away a full set to my buddy who had misplaced his and I still have an unconscionable number left!

BV3 Armory File, BV3 Sheet 1 would give you the main counters you need.
