Nor Maxim Gorky or Ruweisat Ridge.Without CH- TRBH would never have existed. That would have been a pity.

TPP means Third Party Producer / Product, i.e. BFP, LFT, Schwerpunkt, CH and the like, which are not MMP / Avalon Hill.I'll admit my ignorance what is TTP and TRBH?
Just because you have a "right" to do something does not mean that you should be doing it. You have a right to buy stock in companies that profit off of slave or child labor, but many would look askance at your so doing.I am old enough now to know what I like and to have the right to use whatever ASL toys I wish, regardless of source. If they appeal to me and add to my enjoyment, I use them.
Oh yeah, I will be selling off my old AH/MMP counters for those interested. See me at ASLOK.
These are cardboard toys. Nothing more, nothing less. Always have been, always shall be. I like them, so I have them and use them. I find them fun to use.
If you do not wish to allow me to use my counters, then I will gladly allow you the choice to play someone else. If you are that concerned about the source of my toys, then I probably do not want to spend six or so hours of my life sitting across from you.
I am now on a time budget. I am far too old to waste my time but more than willing to waste my money. I find it money well spent.
He is far closer to WBW than to MMP, BFP, etc.Ray Tapio has every right to run his company the way he wants too and he is no Wild Bill Wilder either. I also enjoy BFP and I purchase their stuff they put out also.
Many people object to the company. Some people object to the use of CH versions of real ASL counters (though they do not usually object to people using CH counters that are not in the ASL system or to people using CH versions of such counters as extra counters while playing a module or scenario that requires more of a particular type than are officially available). Some people object on both grounds. You pays yer money and you takes yer chances.What is the issue using them? Is it that people object to the company or that they object to the counters themselves as far as quality or ease of use? That being said, if somebody refused to play with me because of the counters I was using, I would thank them for saving me the time of finding out what I would have inevitably found out about them over the course of the next three hours or so.

Those Ragged Bloody Heroes, the original name of one of CH's products. Using acronyms for Critical Hit products is more or less pointless because he changes titles so often.TPP means Third Party Producer / Product, i.e. BFP, LFT, Schwerpunkt, CH and the like, which are not MMP / Avalon Hill.
TRBH - no idea. Most likely a shortname (like FKaC = For King and Country) for one of CH's products.

You should go to Mark's site and download the Chronology of War 2016 that I put together. It has quite a bit of useful information that you can use, along with Mark's site, when you are thinking of buying any ASL product. It has a section that explains many acronyms.I'll admit my ignorance what is TTP and TRBH?
something similar to changing WoA to FKaC perhaps? OR CoB and GH into RS perhaps?Those Ragged Bloody Heroes, the original name of one of CH's products. Using acronyms for Critical Hit products is more or less pointless because he changes titles so often.
Pitman might be in 'pitbull'-mode, but apparently you can't help not to miss out on going into 'terrier'-mode snapping for his his leg, no?I think herr pitmann is in full retard mode
this...CH obviously receives submissions from ASL designers. What is obvious now is that CH itself is not going to playtest or develop those submissions any further and so in a sense it is up to those original designers to make sure their product is as complete as possible before they submit it. CH is NOT responsible for creating all these new products - it is the work of other designers. So if you buy from CH you are essentially buying some ASL designers work which has not been modified by CH. I'm not going to start fussing that CH is the publisher - I'm more interested in buying the designs and ideas of other ASLers who have released their stuff. There is good stuff among all those releases.

Instead of these dog-fights and 'Pavlov's dog' reflexes, why don't the two of you play a round of "Pavlov's Dogs" (FrF50)? Which hopefully is not a dog. The neighborhood might appreciate the barking to abate in favor of the silent gnawing of bones if it has to be.

And you hit the nail on the head. However. one can occasionally get a pretty good deal on eBay. There was a copy of West of Alamein that just went for $75.00 (missed it by a dollar at the last minute.) I got both Gung Ho and Code of Bushido for about $50 bucks each around Christmas. In addition, I recently got Doomed Battalions for $152.00 (yes that is way too much but still justifiable) and Hollow Legions for just under a $100 (still too much but again justifiable). Conversely, Armies of Oblivion is always going to cost too much, usually way over $200, and Croix de Guerre is the same at way over $100 (recall CdG is a small module). One of the more interesting purchases was the countersheet with Hungarian AFVs from Festung Budapest for $15. Believe it or not that was the 2nd time I saw one for sale, I deliberated too long the first time a set appeared. Also I was able to buy a copy of Hakkaa Paalle (new) for $60. Recall also that purchasing used copies of games does not support MMP in any way so buying so I fail to see the problem with buying what is not available from someone else. Heck, it is likely I will buy the MMP modules when they are reprinted even though I purchased the new French Army Nationality Set.An unpunched (2011) copy of 'For King and Country' just sold on ebay for $330.00 U.S, with shipping $52.00 U.S. It had 33 bids... Amazon is selling 'Rising Sun' for $1,600.00 (Canadian) 3 copies available. I'm pretty sure CH will be selling quite a few of their new Nationality Sets.
What?! RS for CAN$ 1600 which is 1117 Euros?
