What ASL Product Have You Bought Recently?

[Michael R]

In the raffle at Tussle In The Tundra, I won the scenario pack Leatherneck. The pack features scenarios by Steve Swann and others. Ironically, it has an earlier version of BFP56 WHITE BEACH 1, that I just played, under a different name.

Is the ASLSK Expansion pack #3 released with anything other ASL product? I remember hearing there was to be two releases.

 

[David Reinking]

Well, ASLSK Expansion Pack 3 release coincided with ASLSK 1 coming back into stock on their website.

That must have been the other product.

EASLRB. Don't judge me, team binders!

coming soon from Critical Hit all new the ANZAC Action Pak! Women Sheep & a Cow edition with 4000 barren wasteland map panels covering that browneye of a continent down under Australia! & over 6000 counters to represent all sorts of available "love ewes" .... then be sure to get the winterized version of this Action Pack! & ....

Two comments for Mr Psycho: I am concerned with this publication, as a recent member of the Australian Defence Force, I think it will be providing vital intelligence to some of our near and not-so-near neighbours (who seek our "ewes" and rare mineral deposits)
Second point: anybody with a working knowledge of the Australian climate will know that a winterized map of the Australian landscape looks remarkedly similar to the regular map (I suspect this is a dodgy marketing ploy)

Today the Mailman became my friend.

An unshrinked but unpunched copy of "Hatten in Flames" arrived along the KGS Player's Guide

 

[Alan Hume]

I ordered ASLSK Expansion Pack 3 and ASL starter kit bonus pack 2 (as I missed it when it first came out) from Second Chance Games. Looking forward to getting the new maps

 

[M Faulkner]

Got the Starter Kit Expansion Kit #3 yesterday at SPIEL games fair in Essen yesterday (for the geoboards).

Despite SPIEL being the largest games fair in the world (180.000 visitors expected within 4 days), alas, there is not much to show for ASL. The focus is more on Euro games. Still a 'must-visit' every year.

In your second sentence you answered the question I had upon reading your first sentence and that was how much of a presence did ASL have.

I noticed at ASLOK that pretty much everyone there was a Greybeard (myself included...). It seems like ASL isn't attracting the younger players like it did when we were younger.

Wargames were never big and always a nice in Germany. No comparison to the anglo-american market. This is probably due to our historic background.

On the other hand, what is nowadays called "Euro Games" has always been big in Germany. I have heard, that Euro Games find an increasing popularity in the US for a couple of years now, too.

LARP is also big in Germany. There used to be a bit of LARP stuff at SPIEL, but this has shifted to the RPC (Role Playing Convention) in Cologne, which is also held anually. The world's two largest LARP events (along with many others...) are held in Germany: "Conquest of Mythodea" with 6000 to 8000 participants and Drachenfest with around 5000 participants. And this means no spectators but only dressed up players.

Greybeard

I prefer the term Sliverback.

I prefer the term Sliverback.

For those with more hair on their back than the head?

 

[Old Noob]

That applies to more of us than we think!
