Vibe's take
detailed tactical combat, infantry scenario tension, WWII simulation, gradual learning
Who it's for
Wargame enthusiasts ready to enter the deepest tactical WWII system through carefully designed learning scenarios.
Not for you if…
You prefer lighter wargames or find hex-and-counter tactical combat too detail-oriented.
The gateway into the legendary Advanced Squad Leader system, teaching infantry and terrain rules through six carefully designed scenarios. ASL Starter Kit #1 strips away vehicles and ordnance to focus on the core infantry combat that makes ASL compelling: fire groups, morale, concealment, and terrain. The hex-and-counter format delivers tactical World War II combat at its most detailed, and the scenario-based learning curve lets new players build competence gradually. The most accessible entry to wargaming's deepest system.
