It's been 40 years since Advanced Squad Leader was unleashed on the boardgaming world.
We are about to reach the 100th ASL geohex mapboard.
What MMP product should have mapboard 100 in it?
Action Pack 22?
Journal 17?
Special Operations magazine?
This is not a poll, I just want to know what the ASL players of this forum think.

NAY:
  • For sure not an Operations Special. No 'core component', to which geoboards count, should be included in any product that is not even pristinely ASL.
  • No re-publication of a Core Module - nobody wants to re-buy an expensive Core Module for only getting a geo-board.
  • If you ask me, no new Core Module - that's because I think that the Core Module have WW2 sufficiently covered and I am personally not really interested in extending ASL either pre or post WW2.
AYE:
  • Journal
  • Action Pack
  • WO Bonus Pack
  • any kind of Scenario Pack
That said, I don't care in which of the above a board 100 would be included.

Hopefully there's no Y2K thing going on where when we unpack whatever product it comes in it "crashes" all of our existing scenarios.

Something really different: mountaintop fortress. Do it on a Fort board. Have 5 or 6 levels. Lots of cliffs. “Broadsword calling Danny Boy.”
Grumble Jones did a scenario in the past few years with a map of the castle & I think someone else did one about a decade ago. It was probably from that March Madness pack about movies. I’ve got so much crap that I’m not sure anymore (& I haven’t bought anything ASL in years 😭)

yep that's one plus another one that I'm pretty sure the March Madness guys did way back when in that movie pack. then there are my tiny little scenarios like the Saving Ryan's Privates or whatever on the Texas dudes site (if I ever get my site up and going again).
