[Uncle_Duke]

Greetings!

The stars are right, and that means it's time for ASL! In fact the stars are so incredibly right that I'll even be there! The theme this month is Operation MARKET GARDEN. MARKET GARDEN has received many excellent treatments in ASL, most notably in Annual '91 and of course, A Bridge Too Far. I hope to see you there!

September 1941 keeps us on the eastern front, with the Finns and Germans up against the Soviet Union. Sadly, I can't say too much in favor of the balance of either scenario.

Am starting my annual solo MG bash, I call it A Scenario Too Far, featuring scenarios taking place during Operation Market Garden.
Hope to hear more about your MG ASL.

Maybe Geoff & I can play North Bank again. This time with the boards flipped around the right way! (Dooh!)

That sounds like a fun project! Are there any scenarios we should add to our playlist?

I love the idea, but can't make any promises. It looks like we're going to have a brand new player, and I want to make sure that they get something in.

My most memorable Market Garden scenario (Dreil Team?) was when my opponent never used his Tiger the whole scenario because,
"The commander may need to use it somewhere else the next day."
Needless to say, I won.

Sadly I can't make it this Saturday but I plan on getting back into the swing of things next month.
