Podcasts about Advanced Squad Leader

MMP does not want you to know about all the other games that exist in the world. We would never spend time on this show discussing games like Dungeons and Dragons, Settlers of Cataan, or Twilight Imperium, because we are such Advanced Squad Leader loyalists and Fan Boys.  Or would we now? In this very show, Jim Burris gives us an update on the St. Louis Tournament and what HE has been playing lately. James Treu gives us his gaming background and says hello. We also manage to read a few letters.  SHOWTIMES0:01 Small Talk8:30  Jim Burris23:30 Letters41:00 Contest Winner Announced42:00 James Treu47:39 Total Running TimeSHOWLINKSMatt Quinton's Youtube Matt Quinton's Discord  Download this episode (right click and save)

Vi håber, at alle har det godt og får deres spilbehov dækket med solo- og/eller onlinespil eller har aktiveret ægtefæller og afkom udi Catan, Love Letter eller Advanced Squad Leader. For noget tid siden bad vi om indspark fra lytterne og nu har vi tacklet en stak spørgsmål. Så vi får, takke være jer, en snak om: Hvilke computerspil der har kastet gode brætspil af sig (og her er link til Bo “Bastard Cafe” Thomasens The Witcher-rant) Hvorfra behovet for nye spil kommer og er Peter og Morten nogen illoyale fanboys? Vores tidlige spiloplevelser, inklusiv ægte papskubberi (fra Orc- til Greyhawk Wars) Sværd og Trolddom (lyt til vores dedikerede episode her) Junta, det gamle lort Spil til film (Meeple: The Movie?!?) Derudover bliver det også afsløret, hvilken sildesalat de tre værter har på deres BGG-profiler. Og så husk, at vi har et stort bagkatalog af Papstinenser-episoder som stadig kan lyttes til, både på hjemmesiden og på diverse podcast-platforme. Papstinenser på 10er Vi er fortsat tilknyttet papstinenser.10er.dk, hvor man kan støtte Papstinenser med en 10er eller et andet beløb, for hver ny episode. Det er der allerede en del der gør – det er vi vildt glade for – tak! Pengene går til at forbedre og tune på podcasten og udbrede budskabet om Papstinenser og så giver det mulighed for, at komme til at bestemme indholdet af en bonusepisode – den næste følger i næste uge!

Because we get back to the grind and continue our coverage of the Advanced Squad Leader rules, 7.0, Fire Attacks. When is that fire doubled? Halved? Tripled (oh yeah)?

We had so much fun last time that we thought we would invite Rich Spilky, Bob Brown and Dan Dolan back into the broadcast foxhole for some more Advanced Squad Leader discussion.  Bob gives us his gaming background, we discuss attending tournaments, and then we begin a rousing rendition of ADVANCED QUIZ SHOW (yes, these questions are tricky).  Get your bell ready to use to buzz in and play

YeeHaa! Welcome y'all.  Have ya ever wondered what is goin' on in our crazy society today?  We sure have. Fake News, Fake News accusations, rude behavior, random death threats.  We banter a bit about all that and need to talk about the greatest game in the world Advanced Squad Leader to forget about it all. There is also a quick review of the film Darkest Hour.  In the Box is a game Jeff has long

In this age of rampant consumerism and consumption, we're all for cutting back, de-cluttering and simplifying in all things -- except when it comes to Advanced Squad Leader! Case in point, regardless of the fact that we already own a copy of Yanks, we had to (yes, HAD TO) get a copy of Yanks Second Edition. And tonight we open it up with the same giggly, giddy glee (after all, it was In the Box)

Hello Fellow ASLer's, An illustration of the lightning rules from ASL Journal #4 We welcome you to a show that starts out somber, as Dave honors his late father, but soon recovers to celebrate life. There is some coverage of the less important things in life like Advanced Squad Leader. If you were wondering after listening to the last show "Hey, what about the last few articles in Journal 4?"

Gather round if you dare while we croak up some horrifying, shocking, terrifying, and paralyzing banter. These stories will have you running for the cover of a splash-a-torium or frantically seeking succor in the flush-a-teria. But if you can survive that fright-fest, there's some very good Advanced Squad Leader talk to be had as well. For example, after much anticipation and procrastination,

Ozerekya Breakout cover is a fine example of chiaroscuro.
