So paratrooper doesn't require BV? It has the boards and counters needed to play by itself? If that is the case, I will buy that one now and that will hold me off for awhile.
You need boards 1-4 (Paratrooper originally understated that you possessed Squad Leader)JGilbert said:It has the boards and counters needed to play by itself?
Note that if you buy the 2nd edition Paratrooper from MMP's website, mounted boards 2 and 4 are already included. Boards 1 and 3 shouldn't be very difficult to come by on eBay for a good price and then you're away and laughing. Or you could get unmounted board 1 and 3 from MMP as well, but consistency of board type is probably going to be easier to play with.Robin said:You need boards 1-4 (Paratrooper originally understated that you possessed Squad Leader)
Paratrooper v2 from MMP has boards 2, 4 and 24. It has 2 counter sheets with all the counters (including information counters) you need to play.JGilbert said:So paratrooper doesn't require BV?

I think not. Yanks has only U.S. force counters, so unless you want to fight some hypothetical US vs US conflicts, or simulate a friendly fire incident, it'd be better to wait until you can dial up a few German squads!JGilbert said:By the way, would it be worth it to get Yanks also while I wait for BV if I already have Paratrooper??
Well, he could of course buy Hollow Legions and play Italian vs. U.S., or buy Code of Bushido and play Japanes vs. U.S.Reepicheep said:I think not.

Here's some additional notes that you may find useful.JGilbert said:So paratrooper doesn't require BV? It has the boards and counters needed to play by itself? If that is the case, I will buy that one now and that will hold me off for awhile.
That Wild Bill Wilder really gets some great scenario ideas; I just hope he gives Ben Stiller the credit that he's due.From the 3rd party grouping I missed out on HOB's High Ground, which I'd like to get to play some scenarios from Tropic Thunder.

I have a lot of ASL modules but I will not be buying every ASL module out there (official, or 3rd party) as I'm a player and not a collector. Since I don't have much interest into ASL Pacific, I will not be buying much in that area. Also I don't intend to buy other modules like : Croix de Guerre etc...I'm curious to know if most ASLers out there own the whole collection or only part of it. if you don't own it all, do you intend on purchasing the whole set eventually?
