2026-01-15(D) Chuck Hammond vs Maurizio Grassi German winMaurizio main attack came from the bottom of the board, where one of my AT Guns was set up. This AT Gun proceeded to get rate, kill tanks, go into close combat, win the CC, and go on to continue getting tanks. I don't think there was one fire phase when it didn't get rate, even when changing CA, and even continued to hit (even critting) while firing out of a SMOKE filled Location. I really diced my poor opponent, who took the dicing like a man (it's one of those things you have to do from time to time in ASL, unfortunately)! Even despite all that, he didn't lose his nerve and actually managed to mount an attack against the last VC Building despite losing ALL of his armor. Much RESPECT!
2026-01-08(A) David Garvin vs Nick Faryna French winWhat a great game, that went back and forth. But in the end, the French were able to force the issue and win the game. Of note, I lost all but one tank. Also of note, tanks are not essential to win this scenario :)
