Awesome write-up!

I would mention that I believe Bruce Probst attended ASLOK in 2008, since we played a game.

Jeff

Thanks Jeff.

I missed 2008 (one of my sisters had cancer), so i evidently missed Bruce too.

He still gets the BattleDice though, even if he trounced you in the game. :laugh:

Hope to see you again next year.

In the meantime Merry Christmas and an awesome New Year!

Thank you, the same to you are yours!

By the way, I beat Bruce, the only game I won, at my first ASLOK as a newbie!

Let me guess, he set up his entire OB in foxholes... :bite:

The People’s Picks
1. Apart from Don Greenwood, one of the names that appeared frequently in this thread was Charlie Kibler. Charlie is a special case. Although he has long been a hired gun—first as an employee of AH, and later as a contractor for MMP—he is the only remaining member of the AH cabal that started ASL. He worked alongside the likes of Don Greenwood, Rex Martin, and Bob McNamara back in the day. Many are familiar with his artistic talents, but fewer realize that he was also the lead developer of the first (and most famous) Historical ASL module, Red Barricades. I am also grateful for the succinct case put forward by Faded 8-1. His arguments in favour of Mr. Kibler made ignoring my criteria easier. So the first set of ASL Anniversary BattleDice goes to Charlie Kibler. Charlie, from everyone here on GameSquad and elsewhere, a heartfelt thanks.

Wow! This came as a surprise, and an unexpected honor!! To even see my name on the same page as some of them others kind of blows me away.
Thanks for the thanks, and TIA for those special dice!

I should think not ... it was only the epic failure of the

MOST AWESOME HUMAN WAVE EVER

that scuttled me in that game.

It was awfully fun, though, and I'd play Jeff again in a heartbeat (although that's true of pretty much everyone I played that ASLOK).

I am very surprised but grateful for the nod. I'm just one small cog in the great wheel that is ASL.

Aw man I was hoping Tate Rodgers was going to be awarded the dice.


Posthumously.

Gladly accepting my dice with a nod to Rodney for providing an opportunity to have fun with them map things, and with much appreciation for all the voters and Regular Joes.

You really like me?

Gentlemen,

I am, voting for myself. The screwups and losses that I suffered at the hands of mediocre opponents have become legendary. They have contributed greatly to the top notch ASL Players that we have today. Just ask Pleva or McGrath.

The last of the Anniversary BattleDice (Jay's set) shipped yesterday.

Thanks for all the replies.

Happy New Year!

Rodney Kinney and the VASSAL/VASL team. Beyond the design of the modules and the rules writing VASL has opened up the world of ASL to far more people than otherwise would have been imaginable and has undoubtedly lead to more grognards 'Keeping the faith.'

Cheers
