The circle in the middle is the 'stylish' door knob....

[/QUOTE] I think Jackson means literally, in the photo unless you zoom in to see the recessed opening there are no handles to pull it open .

How do you open your wardrobe?

With his hands, is my guess

The Swedish Volunteers returned home...to their Raaco from Trojan Games in Sweden!

 

[von Marwitz]

That's a funny storage:

Inserts mixed together from of good A75 / A78 RAACO, state of the art 3D printed inserts, and ancient cardboard 'things' so old that they must have been clubbered together from the fabric of now extinct trees... ?

When reading my emails today, I have been throughly surprised by a fellow ASLer whom I have never had the privilege to meet in person yet.

It is amazing, to be part of a community which you once have entered without any particular expectations and then learn that it is willing to give without asking. I am grateful to be part of this.

My thanks go out to the man who knows he is meant when he reads this.

Cheers,
von Marwitz

You are not the only one - the GBP£ 8 handling charge made me grind my teeth............

Buying from Second Chance Games is always cheaper.

I did not order it as I have a few sets of the white ones, I’ve been bitten by the import tax all too often the most paid was over £250, that made the £8 handling charge of little consequence

Today: I scanned/printed the scenarios from ASL Trio so I can use 'em for Game Day. I cross out the turns, write the date, players, win-loss, notes, etc. Then put the boards into my travel case.

While the thick card stock is nice, it's too thick to put in the document feeder so each side has to be scanned manually.

First World problem

Why is it nice? Serious question, I was struck at how much thicker it was and couldn't figure why we'd want that.

Olli - with VAT at 20% that means an order value of GBP £1,250. What were you buying?

Tonight, I have diced the living hell out of my poor opponent. I believe that I have never rolled so evilly low - ever:



This allowed me to shatter the defenses on the big hill pretty much in no time (where I have to secure the Level 3 locations). When that is done, I still need to take Hill 18O8 entirely and Russian reinforcements are due in Russian Turn 3. Below is the situation after German Turn 2.




Hopefully, I have not used up my luck for the rest of the year...

It was a joint but with another ASLer, some rare, very Rare and ultimate Uber rate things for ASL, the later being a complete set of Blue bordered Black SS counters.

Haven't done anything ASL related for three weeks. Renovations are going on at home and I have been too busy and too uprooted to do any ASL.

Scratch that. I'll name that a dog of an answer. We can read between the lines. Here is the corrected version:

For three weeks now, I have been diligently renovating my ASL man-cave (and some other parts of the house, cause wifey insisted).
