Okay,

So you're either new to ASL or are returning after a break and want some advice on what are good learning or re-learning scenarios. I think we might be able to help you out. There is no guarantee any of these scenarios are balanced or fun, just that some people think they serve as good introductions to certain parts of the rules.

The first category, returning to ASL, features scenarios found by Daniel Zucker that meet the criteria of being European Theatre, Infantry Only and do not have DASL or HASL boards. In addition, only chapters A and B are required and there are no overlays or bocage in any of them!

The remaining categories are taken directly from the ASL FAQ, with scenario ID, scenario title and source publication given in that order. Note that virtually all of the scenarios included in "Classic ASL" are considered good for learning purposes. Also, all scenarios from "Classic ASL" and AP#1 are available for free download from MMP's website.
