Twin Cities ASL 1/11/20-- JAPANESE CONQUEST

[Uncle_Duke]

Hello!

With New Years behind us, and the days slowly but surely getting longer, we can kick off a new decade's worth of ASL at Fantasy Flight Games together. The theme this month is Japanese Conquest, featuring scenarios set in the Philippines, Dutch East Indies, Malaya, and Burma during the initial Japanese landgrab of late 1941 and early 1942.

As always, new players are definitely welcome! If this is your first time with us, please let us know so we can pack a few simpler scenarios to ease the learning curve a bit.

What's that? You're looking for a scenario set on the exact anniversary? In that case, I recommend either "Langoan Airfield" or "Strongpoint 11," both of which are set on January 11, 1942. Or give one of these a try:

I am planning to be there. Probably looking for something fairly uncomplicated in order to catch the Vikings game at 3:00.

I want to be there, but that Viking game is a big draw for me to stay home.

You've got a little more time than that-- ESPN is saying the game starts at 3:35pm.

 

[Cult.44]

I'll probably show up but I can't stay much past noon because of stuff I have to do before the Vikings game.
