A WORLD AT WAR, the 22nd “action pack” for Advanced Squad Leader, contains an eclectic mix of small unit actions from 1941 to 1945, ranging across many different theaters of World War II. Scenarios span the globe from the forested highlands of Ethiopia to the jungles of Papua, New Guinea, from the steppes of the Soviet Union to the snowy forests of the Ardennes. These 12 scenarios were designed by Jim “The Bishop Sez” Bishop and Gary “Fort” Fortenberry for release at a tournament and are intended to offer movement options and tough choices for both sides. Play times are designed for a typical tournament round, with the largest best used for the last round of the day. Three double-sided 11˝ × 16˝ maps, each designed by Fort and painted by Charlie Kibler, round out the package. These boards are completely geomorphic and fully compatible with previous ASL mapboards, allowing new and unique terrain configurations.
