Melee Pack II

From the Southern Cal ASL Club web site:

Melee Pack II has six scenarios, with a little something for everyone! We take you to the steppes of the Crimea, the jungles of Ecuador and the heart of Stalingrad. We’ve got vehicles of all description waiting for you to shift into gear; from a trio of AVREs to a quartet of ISU-122s to a lone StuIG 33B to a T-60 conga line. We give you battles between titans, from Assault Engineers fighting Assault Engineers to Dogfighting Air Support. Our scenarios range from tournament-size to super-size. Like things simple, without all those tanks and guns and things? We’ve got you covered! How about a complex challenge you can sink your Grognard teeth into? Take two, their small! Wanna fight on the Red Barricades map? Done! Did I mention the AVREs? Did I mention the Firefly backing them up? Bam!

Melee Pack II also contains a set of our wildly popular Scenario Cheat Sheets! If you haven’t seen one before, a Scenario Cheat Sheet depicts vehicle and gun notes based on the forces involved, the date and any special rules. What you wind up with is a sheet of information specially tailored for each vehicle and gun for that scenario. It saves us a lot of time looking up rules and we hope you’ll find them useful also. Melee Pack II is packed with great ASL...you’re gonna love it!
