Advanced Squad Leader: Starter Kit #2

Description
About ASL
Advanced Squad Leader is a WW2 tactical combat game known as one of the most realistic and complex board games of its kind. The Starter Kit series is intended to introduce new players to the game. This second Starter Kit introduces heavy guns like the famous German 88s to the game. If you are new to ASL, I'd recommend to start with the first Starter Kit

Features
  • 8 Scenarios with pre-arranged counters and custom made maps
  • 2 Maps + custom made maps for each scenario
  • Six nationalities (American, British, Greek, Italian, German and Russian)
  • Over 120 different units and weapons
  • A total of over 150 high quality counters

About this mod
Up until now, the only way to play ASL online was via VASL. While the scope of VASL is enormous, covering the entire ASL universe, the quality of the components is lacking and the program itself feels more like a tax program from the late 90s. This mod, since it covers only the first and second Starter Kit, has a small scope which allows it to focus on a high quality conversion of the physical components of the game while also making it easy to set up and play. I hope both new and old ASL players can enjoy this version.

Just found this, TheCze and it looks amazing! Is there any chance you could add the counters Bigby mentioned? I feel like this could be opened up to so many more scenarios by adding these! Concealment, sniper and foxhole/trench counters alone would go a really long way. Thank you for all the effort so far and I can't wait to play!

The work on SK#1 and SK#2 are fantastic. Is SK#3 planned in the future? Thanks for all of your work on this! This has a better feel than VASL.

Bigby you surely realize you dont need 2 different sizes of ?ment counters right?

great work praying for your SK3

Yeah, Bigby....that's ASL and not SK.
Give him time...he may go there.
You dont need CA counters..you could draw the CA on the map. Fire lane as well withthe "highlight" option.
AS there are no gullies...no Crests re needed...LOL

The ASL community is looking up at you like a bunch of kids are looking at a candy box on the counter, TheCze!

Sorry to have opened up a can of worms but ...
I have a small group of freinds that love to play full ASL but rarely get to play face to face. The quality of this engine and the work you are doing is astounding and it would be great if you added a few essential counters to the mix. Now after careful thought and realising that you probably dont want to go too far outside the scope of the scenarios that are provided and taking into account what you've already done I would recommend the following:
Concealment counters (large and small)
Sniper counters
Upper level building counters
Support Weapon coverered arc counters
Fire lane counters
Fox holes/trenches
A "Labor" counter would be nice
Crest status
There are many more mainly terrain/fortification related counters I could name for doing DYO style scenarios and the small set of OBA counters would be great, you know I could go on and on, but I will stop here.
Thank you for any and all you do!
