    Something I would had, your units will break so make sure to plan for retreat paths in advance, and identify possible safe havens.

    Managing your own morale (and patience) is probably the best advice for playing almost any wargame.

      It would be neat to see them give the game a proper digital treatment. There have been a few attempts over the years, but with today's graphics and interfaces, it could make it really playable. I guess the fear is that there aren't that many people like you or myself out there who would buy it instantly

      Hasbro, who owns WotC, holds the license. They have a licensing agreement for the PHYSICAL game with Multi-Man Publishing that gets renewed periodically. The digital rights are held by Hasbro pretty tightly. They allowed it to be used back in 1999 or 2000 maybe for a turn-based tactical shooter that was a WW2 take on Jagged Alliance. It bombed and angered a lot of ASL and SL fans.
      The digital version of this IS VASL.

    What does it mean to use mortars in "direct fire mode"? Isn't mortar fire always treated as indirect fire?

      I totally get what you're saying, but the rules for ASL are something else. But if you know what weapons you can use against which targets, for example, you will have an actual tactical advantage against your opponent.

      That's Table Top Simulator, just a game table (like Vassal). The closest thing you'll find to an ASL computer game (with computer AI opponent) is the game Second Front.

    Not all armor is immune to small arms fire. There are several ways armor can be defeated by infantry. Definitely unlikely (pun intended), but not impossible.

      Yes, I think the author meant that in broad terms. Where there's a will (and a lucky die roll), there's a way!
