Description

This is The Last Hurrah - the sixth Advanced Squad Leader module. The eight scenarios contained herein focus on historical situations involving the early German blitzkriegs of World War II and the many nationalities that fought against the invaders. Paratroopers, armor, air power, audacity, and courage were the tools with which Germany planned to overrun the neutral nations of Europe, and in less than two years, in actions as far apart as Norway and Crete, the German military accomplished all they had set out to do. For the most part, the invaded neutrals (Poland, Norway, Belgium, the Netherlands, Yugoslavia, and Greece) were defended by hastily-mobilized reservists stiffened by a few elite units. The actions depicted in The Last Hurrah will challenge veteran players to match the tenacity, audacity, and victories on both sides in the eight scenarios recreating the German march of conquest. Experience, as only Advanced Squad Leader can let you, the desperate fighting of these first days of World War II. Whether commanding German armor, Polish cavalry, Greek infantry, Belgian Chasseurs, Norwegian reservists or Luftwaffe paratroopers, if you're an ASL grognard, you're bound to find something pleasing in the wide spectrum of scenarios included in The Last Hurrah.

The Last Hurrah contains eight scenarios, one countersheet of Allied Minor infantry and support weapons - and two boards: 11, with revised artwork; and 33, which features open terrain and a large grainfield.
