Hello, Wanted to post up my first message to you on this very intriguing game that I have come across. Now mind you, I play Axis & Allies , not much of a war gamer. But, this passing fancy of watching a game and looking on the internet I come to find you. My first impressions were , Do I have time to learn this?? But, I must say that since my good fortune of stumbling across this fine program of yours. You have shared a bit of the fun that I can find in this game well hidden in between the rules. So My thanks to you and from this Group in the southwest. I have been packing to relocate to Albuquerque NM and hope to find some of these Players out there. I have just picked up Starter kit #1 and have it laid out in my study now. Well, thanks again for another way to eat my money and free time. It's all good! Your truly , Chuck Synold
ReplyDeleteThe Assault Boats in Yanks do have ID-letters: K-Z. Though there are only 16 of them.
ReplyDeleteCommander of the German 6th Army at Stalingrad was Friedrich Paulus - not von Paulus.
It is von Paulus on the counter. Some quick research shows him named Friedrich Paulus and Friedrich von Paulus. My guess would be he dropped the "von" due to nazi pressure for officers to drop the aristocratic "von" prefix.
ReplyDeleteMy guess is that he never had "von" in his name.
ReplyDeleteI did find out that the Assault Boats from VotG do indeed lack any ID-letters, so it must have been those that were used.
Greetings again from Alaska. Thanks for reading my letter on the show (typo and all). Are the Spilky Tables (ASLRulesTablesRSS20150720.pdf) linked on the Quick Access page the latest version mentioned on this show? Perhaps there could be a date of revision. The ones linked on the Texas ASL site are from 2011. Thanks.
