Greetings one and all!
The last month has been the longest decade of my life. There's nothing I could use more right now than to see you all and play some ASL. Thanks to modern technology, that's still a possibility, albeit with a few modifications.
Needless to day, we will not be meeting in person this month.
Instead, I propose a TCASL VASL day. Use this thread, find an opponent, and get a game in. And then post an AAR because I want to read about all the amazing exploits of your cardboard soldiers.
For those of you outside the Minneapolis / St. Paul area who've always thought that those TCASL folks are totally full of hot air and that you could absolutely take them on, now's you're chance. Distance doesn't matter, and we'd love the company.
Details:
Day: 4/11/20
Time: Whenever you please
Location: VASL, BGG, GS, Discord-- wherever we happen to congregate online
The theme this month is "Victory in Europe." The following scenarios all take place in the last month of the war in Europe.
