How many pints will £24 get you?

Then again you won't pish it all out when you're done playing with ASL  :2funny:

We played a lot of SL back in the day, because basically, that was THE WW2 tactical game back then. We didn't really get into ASL when it came out though.

It can't be that bad...I mean, I've got lots of other tactical games and as mentioned above - it seems they took the best bits from ASL...so I can't imagine there'd be more of a draw to play this than any other of my tactical games.

Do you really think the draw to ASL would be greater than what I have already? Bearing in mind I have Combat! which I truly love.

Considering ASL has something on the order of 436,912 expansions, perhaps they're doing something right. I'd say you're in for a time.  ;D

This would be a good spot for a ASL meme with a blackhole featured.   :whistle:
