Good job 👍🏁🏆🍺

Awesome video. Keep pumping out these ASL videos, please!

Love the 5-sided die lol

how much time a match will it takes?

Loved your rules review!! Would love to see a review of gmt red dust rebellion!!!!

well done

Where can I print these cheater pages off at

Hands down, the best complex game explanation!

People think it's a game of stategy but but the dice make it a game of history. Germany is now invading China while the British have expanded their Empire throughout Africa and the middle-east.

Question: 1. if an attacking unit expends 2MF to enter a building, could a defending unit fire twice on that hex-- once for each MF expended? - OR - 2. the defending unit can only fire once regardless of the MF expended by the attacker to make the move into the hex. I know that if the attacker expends further MF in the same hex (i.e. places a DC, retrieves SW, or places smoke) then it could be attacked again

Thank you 🙏

Is the quick battle system optional?

I really love this game. i play it since 2015 and it is always a pleasure. I have all extensions of Ancients. It is an awesome system.

Excellent tutorial; thank you very much. Quick question; your demo with the first stormtrooper seems to suggest that you can't use the same action twice in the same activation phase, e.g. can't use "move" for both actions. Is this correct?

Where can I buy this 2007 version?

Dear Ben! Excellent job you are doing and I love your channel and the way you explain the rules. May there be a chance that you do For the People soon??? Thanks and greetings from Poland!

This is just great! Thanks for putting this video together.

13:20 Wouldn't it go to 3?

Finally decided to buy ASLSK1. Just blitzed through the past 11 videos on x2 speed to familiarize myself with some of the concepts, and I'm excited to dive in! Definetly will return to the videos if (when) something needs clarifying!

We used to add a house rule, that tried to replicate the intrigue that characterized the era. After the province cards were dealt out, each player got to draw ‘secret allies’. For this we printed another set of province cards in blue, which we shuffled and dealt out: each player got one card for each five provinces held, rounding up ( so if you have 13 province cards you get 3 Bllue cards). Then we had a set of red province cards and each player got one, regardless of how many province cards they held. During the game you can reveal a blue card at any time during a round, even after an attack has been declared. The province immediately becomes your’s and you now own any provincial troops and fortifications. A red card works the same way, but overrides a blue card if it has been played: this means that there can be a rare double betrayal. It added an element of uncertainty to play that we found really interesting. We also tried increasing the frequency of blue and red cards, but finally settled on the 3/1 pattern.

Hey man I have a doubt so if the central powers attack a neutral power (eg: Germany attacks holland) Can the allies put US units there and get US into the war before turn 4?

Thanks!

I don’t want to read through 44 comments, but I’m guessing someone did cover the following slight error in phrasing, or egregious error if Harsh is interpreted strictly: The person who drops the DEFCON level to DEFCON one (🤯) is NOT the loser as Ben said. Rather, the loser is the person who is on turn (aka: phasing player ) when the nuclear war begins. This is a VITAL distinction to keep in mind because during your turn, you can easiky make a terrible misplay allowing your opponent to Coup in a battleground causing the nuclear war. They are not the loser, instead you are Because Armageddon happened on your turn.

What an excellent tutorial. I’ve always wanted to play this game but I don’t think it lends itself to solo play, not even the tried and tested left hand vs right hand method.

Octagonal means 8-sided. That's a hexagon.

Omg thank you thank you! Perfect explanation!

Not even half way through the video and already writing a command. Very clear explanation. nicely structured and organized and very clear speech. in addition you even made the work of visualizing everything. i can only imagine how much work u put into these videos. This is the kind of tutorial i want to see from many other games. no bullshit, no jokes. just exactly what i need when i want to see a tutorial.

I've noticed a few mistakes in this video. A big one is about Surprise Strike/Submerge and AAA guns as all being pre-combat. Only AAA guns are pre-combat. Surprise Strike/Submerge can happen every round. The actual rule written on pg. 19 of the Europe 1940 Second Edition manual reads: "As long as there are attacking and/or defending submarines and no opposing destroyers, this step is repeated during each round of combat."

Great explanation!

Not the metric system! I only wanna use freedom units 😟

Nice and clear, many thanks

Love all of your videos! If you have the time or desire, I would love to see a bolt action rules breakdown as well! You’ve made it possible to play war of the ring with my friends a lot easier

Ikusa is a downgrade not an upgrade.

A rule that was not clear in the Starter Kits - round down to nearest odds category.

This was genuinely some of the most difficult stuff to understand in the SK#1 Rulebook but between that book and your explanation here it is starting to click. I don't know if I could have wrapped my head around the whole thing without your video.

Is a tactical bomber (carrier based or otherwise) limited to attacking only air and naval bases or are all other targets (except for industrial complexes) allowed as well?

Incredible helpful and clearly explained. Thank you.

at 9:44 why you made use of Sir Dudley Pound attribute since you used Churchill to take his place?

At 15:26, the owner of a theater receives 1 offensive support or 1 naval support. Not both as you say.

Many thanks!

Your work on this is phenomenal.

Where is Gun Shields in the RuleBook ?

No Commonwealth units? 🤣

When you send airplanes to a battle in the sea, they should go back to friendly territory after the battle? Or they stay there.

Very well done. Thank you.

Thank you for this tutorial! My first coin game and enjoying it. 😊

Multiple Close Combat options in CC Phase means Strategic Choices. CC orignal DR can mean leader creation.

Clear and step by step explanation of Advance Phase and Close Combat Phase. Thank you.

A Detailed step by step global & Dynamic analysis of Defensive First Fire, Defensive Fire Phase and Advancing Fire Phase. Insightful.

Enlightening video about the very situational rout phase in ASLSK#1 Thank you😌
