New MMP DASL pack

[Honza]

How did he spend 15 grand! I caught up for over 30 years of absence with maybe a tenth of that -- what did he buy?

I don't think it is possible to catch up on 30 years of absence with only $1500. Unless you only buy official stuff. The guy who spent over 15K probably bought loads of TPP.

It probably depends a lot on what you mean by "catch up". I came back to the hobby about 3 1/2 years ago, after a 15-year hiatus or so. I have been buying the missing APs, all newer core modules to replace the older, and quite a lot of TPP stuff (LFT, Bounding Fire, Friendly Fire, Lone Canuck) - I don't think I've bought a single item over the normal retail price (at least, what passes for the normal retail price around here). I have not kept track, but I'd say I spent roughly 2000 euros, maybe 2500.

I got mostly core modules and I waited for AoO to be rereleased and I didn't opt for ridiculously overpriced stuff like Tarawa or Arnheim. However, It may be closer to the 2K that Philppe D. mentioned.

I have been back to ASL in the last 2-2,5 years, I would say I have save around $6k in drinks, movies, cars, useless purchases and women

This

ASL and VASL + Discord cuts me off from most (non work) face to face human contact. Huge money saver!!!!

Similar story for me.

I looked at my purchases in the last 2 years since renewing this hobby. I have original modules BV, P, Y, WoA, CdG, CoB, GH, RB, KGP1 and Solitaire.

So far purchased replacements of BV and Y. New DB, AoO, HP and FW. SKs 1-4, HiF, RF. All Journals, WO packs and APs that have been available (13). Map Set 1-52,

Rat Charts, Some BG counters. Most of the Lone Canuck Tactical Missions and most of the Bounding Fire packs.

Total: $2,794. All retail prices. Mostly from RitterKrieg.

New CdG, FKaC, Delux on order.

OK - since I think I got almost all of the items that you cited, and then some (from BFP, Friendly Fire, LFT), I may have underestimated what I've been spending

Ok, you are not back in the hobby yet there pal; you are missing one pair of precision dice from Battleschool, doesn't have to be a themed set, even the plain "backgammon" ones count (that is what I use). Get cracking and bump that total for the two year period a bit. Tell Chris I sent ya..he might cut you a deal.

Got'em. Earlier this year Ritter was offering free ones if you ordered Blood and Jungle or Poland in Flames. So now I have two sets.

 

[Justiciar]

Ok, your spreadsheet needs up-dating coz you didn't account for it in your trail of dead presidents spent for fun...that would be a line item $0 as comp.

Anticipate Packing/Shipping notices within the next week or so. I ordered the same day pre-ordering was opened, so hopefully it will be a quick turn once the Packing notice comes in.

Hopefully it'll contain quite a few concealment counters for each nationality!

 

[bprobst]

I already own enough concealment counters to build an actual house out of. In any case, DASL requires no more than the usual number, as is explicitly noted in J2.17.

 

[Hutch]

Nothing about a counter sheet was mentioned in the DASL Redux description.

Correct.

In Adelaide you could use them to heat your house for part of the year, what with the sky-high electricity rates in SA.

Anyone seen any cover art for DASL Redux?

Wow, not at all what I expected for the style! Like it though.
