Description

This core Module (number 3) includes the complete Order of Battle for the U.S forces, except for the Marines (introduced in Gung Ho).

This module not only brings in the U.S. Army, but also Chapter E for the rule books.  Chapter E covers many miscellanous but important combat operations, such as tactical parachute drops, night actions, weather, air support, interrogation, ski troops, boats, swimming, gliders, ammo vehicles, convoys, and artillery barrage.

Eight scenarios cover actions in Italy and France, including the desperate actions at Pointe du Hoc and Bastongne.

Each unit represents a squad, crew, leader or weapon.  Each hexagon represents 40 meters of terrain.  Each turn represents 2 minutes of time.

The ASL system is vast, with many modules available.  Each module focuses on a particular theme and provide counters, maps and scenarios to play.

This item only contains module specific rules and counters.  Players must purchase the ASL Rulebook and Beyond Valor to play.  Three scenarios require ownership of boards 7 and 12.
