ASL: Journal – Issue Ten

From BoardGameGeek:

(from MMP website:) ASL Journal 10 features six brand-new articles, the latest Q&A/errata, sixteen ASL scenarios printed on cardstock, and two cardstock player aids. ASL Journal 10's new format features separate, cardstock scenarios, rather than the traditional method of binding the scenarios in with the rest of the pages, with the magazine itself now printed on the same 80-pound gloss paper used for MMP's Special Ops magazine. As such, players will no longer have to photocopy the scenarios or remove them from the magazine prior to playing, and the new glossy paper for the 48-page magazine proper will significantly improve the brightness and clarity of articles therein. Using scenario card inserts also makes it easier to include other inserts, such as the player aids also provided in ASL Journal 10. ASL Journal 10 contents include the following: Scenario Replay of the Festung Budapest scenario FB17 Stalingrad Redux, with Phil Palmer, John Slotwinski, and Sean Deller; Spencer Armstrong's When In The War? is a survey of date-dependent rules in table format; Robert Wolkey aims to ease newbie pain in The Beginner Blues; Bruno Nitrosso's Close Combat Simulator guides you to a better approach in CC; Bret Hildebran's Son of Squad Bleeder is a DYO-esque trio of scenarios; Aaron Cleavin explores low-odds FP attacks and Sniper tactics in Bullet In The Head; Debriefing, this issue's errata updates; The Umpires' View editorial, with various deep thoughts from MMP HQ; Frequently Asked Questions for Festung Budapest; The Festung Budapest Player Aid Chart; and 16 ASL scenarios (printed on 8 x 11 inch cardstock): J147 Into The Grinding Mill (Chinese vs Japanese, 12 September, 1937) J148 Last Minute War (Hungarians vs Slovakians, 24 March 1939) J149 Taking A Stand At Rosario (Americans vs Japanese, 22 December 1941) J150 The Sangshak Redemption (British vs Japanese, 26 March 1944) J151 Squeeze Play (Japanese vs British, 25 May 1944) J152 Messenger Boys (German vs British, 2 August 1944) J153 Dawn's Early Light (American vs German, 7 August 1944) J154 Cradle To Grave (American/FFI vs German, 1 September 1944) J155 It's Hardly Fair (Americans vs Germans, 20 September 1944) J156 Mageret Mixer (Germans vs Americans, 19 December 1944) J157 Rage Against The Machine (Germans vs Russians, 21 December 1944) J158 It Don't Come Easy (Americans vs Germans, 15 January 1945) J159 Tropic Lightning (Japanese vs Americans, 24 January 1945) J160 Bienen Burnout (Germans vs Canadians, 25 March 1945) VotG25 Urban Nightmare (Germans vs Russians, 28 September 1942) FB18 Red Banner Days (Germans/Hungarians vs Russians, 26 January 1945) ASL Journal 10 scenarios use the following boards and overlays: Boards: 4, 10, 11, 12, 13, 18, 24, 35, 39, 40, 41, 42, 44, 46, 48, 49, 50, 54, 56, 64, 65, 2a, 3a, b, c, d, FB(NE), FB(NW), VotG, x, y Overlays: O1, O4, O5, OW1, Wd1, Wd2, Wd4, X11, X14, X15, X16, X18, X22, X27, X29
