Today in ASL I ... (Day to day ASL doings)

[Uncle_Duke]

Today in ASL, I tried to jump a Pz-38(t) using Street Fighting with a British 2-3-7 HS and 7-0. Here's how it went:
PAATC-- Pass
CC Roll-- 6,6 (crap!)
Random Selection-- 4,4 (really?)
Wound Survival-- 6 (oh, come on!)

There's actually (IIRC) no Random Selection for Crew Small Arms - all units involved suffer Casualty Reduction.

I just double checked, and you are correct! Thanks for the catch!

IMO, the dice catch most rules errors. -- jim

CC'ing tanks is a risky business.

 

[Old Noob]

CC'ing even a conscript HS is risky.

Had a couple of goes at OA29 "The Amy H" this morning. AAR is posted here:

OA29 The Amy H | GameSquad Forums

One German and one British win. A extremely fun and challenging scenario that requires both players to bring their A game..

I've pretty much learned the hard way to never engage a weaponless leader in CC.

Especially Lt. "Bruce" Lee.

It's just occurred to me that ASL could provide a rich seam of material for Chuck Norris jokes.

 

[Old Noob]

I'll start on the jokes: Chuck Norris does not get overrun by a tank.. He just kicks it out of his way.

 

[Uncle_Duke]

Chuck Norris can trace LOS through +6 Hindrances

Chuck Norris always has radio contact, and his SRs are always accurate

CC with Chuck Norris is always Hand to Hand

Perry asks Chuck Norris for rules clarifications

Chuck Norris holds AFVs in Melee

Movement ADJACENT to Chuck Norris is always Hazardous

ADJACENT and adjacent are the same to Chuck Norris

WP has to make an NMC when fired into Chuck Norris' hex

 

[Old Noob]

Chuck Norris does not become Counter Exhausted. The road tires out first.

 

[Old Noob]

Chuck Norris does not rout. He advances in a different direction, towards the enemy.

 

[holdit]

The Chuck Norris leader counter is 11-4 and is heroic. And Fanatic. And Berserk.

Board 2 used to consist of one long hill, until it got in the way of Chuck Norris.

One day Chuck Norris strolled from one end of Board 3 to the other while eating cherries. The shellholes are where he spat out the stones.

 

[footsteps]

Every Chuck Norris Hit is a Critical Hit.

When Chuck Norris rolls doubles, the enemy Cowers.

When Chuck Norris rolls boxcars, the all the enemy SW break.

Every broken friendly unit that can see Chuck Norris automatically Rallies as Fanatic.

A vehicle carrying Chuck Norris automatically creates Trail Breaks, without Bog rolls.

An unarmed Jeep driven by Chuck Norris will Overrun everything, including (but not limited to) a King Tiger.

Chuck Norris only has 4MF. But he pays only 1/4MF per Open Ground hex as he moves the globe beneath him.
