Hello to all my ASL Comrades. We have started the playtest on Issue #36 and
I'll have details on what we are working on next month. In the meantime, seeing
we are heading into the Holiday Season, I am putting all my back issues on sale
along with making any new subscriptions the $15.00 price that everyone will pay
once I go to pdf. files with Issue #37. These prices are in effect until Christmas Eve,
so you can save before Black Friday and take advantage while you can. See complete 
pricing further down this update.
 
As for recently published #35, It contains the usual 4 action-packed scenarios:The Gin Drinkers Line - Hong Kong 1941 - Nice tourney style offering from our
own Joe Gochinski with a reinforced company of Elite and 1st line Japanese
infantry tries to wrest the Bd 62 village from the 7th Rajput (Indian) Regiment.
Plays fast and bloody, very tense fight over those Huts.
 
The Gateway - Hatten, France, January 1945 - Steve Johns brings us the tourney
style gem as Panzer Grenadiers and Pioneers, supported by Stugs and a Flame-Hetzer,
smash into the 42nd Rainbow Division during Operation Nordwind. With two 57L ATGs
the out-manned GIs will do their best to defend Board 1a. Tourney style with nice toys.
 
A Willingness to Die - Robert Hammond is back with the next in the 6th Panzer Division
series. It is day two of Operation Barbarossa and elements of the Russian 48th Rifle
Division stand in the path of the German advance at Paislinus, Lithuania. A very cool
Sniper SSR that Robert & Tom Morin collaborated on make this a hornets nest for
the advancing lancers as they try to control woods/buildings on board 38 along with
exiting 20 VPs. A nice, innovative design with wrinkles that only Robert seems to come
up with. Medium sized action takes around 6 hours to complete.
 
Les Homme de Neige - New Dispatches designer Bruce Childs has come up with 
a Big, Brutal melee in the mountain tops near Storvtn, Norway in May 1940. On Bds
2, 9 & 15 with a couple companies worth of French 1st liners and Elite Ski troops trying to 
clear the hilltops of dug in German mountain troops. Snowshoes also make a rare
appearance in Deep Snow conditions in Alpine style hills. Very cool looking larger
action for those not afraid to spending 7+ hours on a scenario.
 
We also have a winner in the Article Contest (Congrats Kedge!) who does a nice
job looking at Gun Duels. Carl Nogueira has more Tactical Tips and I'll have all the 
usual scoop on the regional ASL scene. 
 
As has been noted in the past, I will be going to strictly pdf. file format
after Issue #36 ships next March. I am no longer re-printing Back Issues 
and have limited numbers of Issues #25, 26, 27, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33 & 34
left, once they are gone they are gone. I will have some Back Issues
available eventually as pdf. files, I'm still looking at which ones will be 
available but anything that has been re-published by MMP will not.

Speaking of old Dispatches, MMP published 'Out of the Bunker' featuring 
scenarios that originally were published in Issues #01 - #20. See the link below:

For those unfamiliar with Dispatches, it is a 12 page Amateur 
ASL Newsletter that comes to the greater ASL Community twice 
a year, sometime in March and September courtesy of the New
England ASL Community, including the Bunker Crew and
our yasl Brothers in Southern New England. It typically contains
4 New Scenarios, Analysis of each one, a Main Article on any
aspect of the game system, Tactical Tips, ASL News and
Tournament Updates from our region.
