Open the ASL Rulebook Hal. Sorry HAL 9000, it had to be done.....and we had a lot of fun doing it. Do you think a HAL unit would have its line of sight blocked to the interior of the ship if you held the ASL Rulebook up over it's little red eye? You will learn the answer to that question as we explore rule 6, LOS. It is a bit of a "quiz show" so sharpen your mind and prepare to listen. See if you can beat Jeff to the right answers. Dave Ginnard (photo credit to D. Garvin) You new ASLer's can learn alot about the history of the game from our interview with the very famous and most wise, Dave Ginnard. You older players will enjoy hearing about the good old days. He hails from Ohio and was there at the genesis of Advanced Squad Leader. He's also a lot of fun to listen to in his own right. So give it a listen. Rich Spilky connected us at the ASL Open. Thanks, Rich. Remember to not run into any trees everyone.
