Description

[Edit] [History]

Advanced Squad Leader (ASL) Starter Kit #1 teaches new players the basic concepts of the major Infantry and Terrain rules from Advanced Squad Leader (ASL) by using an abbreviated and illustrated rulebook.

The ASL Starter Kit #1 is a stand-alone game, with six scenarios that require only the maps and counters provided in the module. The two mapboards that are included also work with both Squad Leader and Advanced Squad Leader (ASL), and the scenarios can be played using full Advanced Squad Leader (ASL) rules if desired.

Contents:

  • One sheet of die-cut playing pieces
  • Three scenario cards with six infantry-only scenarios
  • Two 8"x22" Geomorphic mapboards mounted on heavy cardstock
  • Twelve page Illustrated rulebook
  • Two dice

Time Scale: Two minutes per turn
Unit Scale: Individual men, half-squads, and squads
Players: Two
Playing Time: Up to 4 hours per scenario
Complexity: Medium
Solitaire Suitability: High

Note: Rules for large guns and tanks are not covered in the first starter kit, but are developed in the later starter kits:
