(The player was 15 and he did pretty well!) |
| 2024-11-09 | (D) nathan wegener | vs | Jeff | | Russian win | | looked bad initially as the Russians ended German T1 with 3 broken squads + 8-1 and the Maxim MMG malfed on its first shot. However in T2 the 10-2 boxcarred an NMC taking out wounding with both FT squads breaking. I was able to keep them broken for another 2 full turns which really turned the tide. Germans simply did not have enough troops to take down all the Russians the fortified building |

| 2024-09-25 | (A) Don Lazov | vs | Steve Ambruzs | | German win | | Steve and I had a great game, came down to the very last turn in a last ditch effort to storm building 1X4 last two hexes. |

| 2023-07-08 | (A) Yuqi Xiong | vs | Warf | | German win | | This time learned how to form some kill stacks.
Rolled several critical dice quite lucky, including the 10-2 became heroic, 2 DCs blew up and rumbled one of the ground levels in the fortress and buried the commissar and 3 squads upstairs.
Warf deployed quite forward, trying to delay German stormtroopers. I did spend 5 turns to reach the fortress, but not many Russian squads left in it.
I think there isn't much for Russian player to do, and Russian player have to resist the pressure from German supermen. |
| 2023-06-11 | (D) Jonathan Kapleau | vs | Cusick, John | | Russian win | | |
| 2023-06-10 | (D) Jeff Waldon | vs | Zach Emberton | | Russian win | | Central Illinois ASL Players Group |
| 2023-06-10 | (A) Nate Gregg | vs | Tim Boord | | German win | | Great f2f encounter at the Central Illinois ASL Club! The first at a neutral site, and Tim's first face-to-face full ASL ever. Good game, lots of bloodshed in the Fortified Building on the second to last turn. |
| 2023-05-21 | (A) Yuqi Xiong | vs | Gregory | | Russian win | | Definitely a great classic intro scenario, but all Russian player needs to do is to retreat as many units as possible, into the formidable fortified building X4. Fabian strategy works all the time.
As German player, I should have used detection rule more aggressively, as fortified location can also be detected. In the contest of the X4 building, I need to form FG wisely and limit the movement of defenders. |
| 2023-05-19 | (D) Len Kay | vs | Keith Hill | | German win | | [Imported from ROAR] |
| 2023-05-05 | (A) Paolo Cariolato | vs | Marino Manfroni | | German win | | It's always fun to play this classic. |
| 2023-03-12 | (A) Louis Langdeau | vs | CR Holmes | | German win | | Played this one a while back, but IIRC CR deployed a lot of stuff pretty far forward, and I was able to cut a lot of the rout paths back, keeping him from falling back his units. |
| 2023-03-07 | (A) Rob Schmitt | vs | Mitch Davis | | Russian win | | Germans had a good advance up to the point of assaulting the main objective fortified building. The Russian defensive fire completely broke up the assault into the building. German was not able to regroup and breach the building. Definitely a good scenario to play. |
| 2023-02-16 | (A) Terrence Dorsey | vs | Solo | | German win | | Germans won on the last turn. Russians made a few tactical errors, starting with my initial misunderstanding of fortified building rules. If I'd grasped the requirements for fortification better, I think the balance would have been in favor of the Russians in this playing. I'll play both sides very differently next time. |
| 2022-12-15 | (A) Niels Ludvigsen | vs | Flemming Scott Christensen | | Russian win | | |
| 2022-11-30 | (D) Savo Barbero | vs | Opponent Aanonymous | | German win | | [Imported from ROAR] |
| 2022-08-14 | (D) Craig Renier | vs | Tim Keller | | Russian win | | The German advance for the first half of the scenario was cautious resulting in few casualties. However, the slow approach cost valuable time. In addition, the Russians were able to withdraw to the VC building with the majority of their force intact. The Germans became bolder, but the Russians had too much FP making it extremely difficult to breach the building. With a final desperate assault, the Germans suffered under withering fire leaving few units remaining. |
| 2022-08-04 | (D) nathan wegener | vs | Tobias W | | German win | | Learning game w my son and we had a blast. Generated two Russian heros only to have them shot away by the same HMG that created them on ROF tear. |
| 2022-07-07 | (D) Craig Renier | vs | Jim Vasiliou | | German win | | The Russians were able to lay down nice residual walls slowing the German advance, but that was about all. Most IFT rolls were too high to have any effect. Those attacks that did garner a MC were easily passed. When the Germans were entering the fortified building, they had virtually the entire attack force available. However, time had been used up, so the Russian defenders were still hopeful. A DC charge rubbled a lower level eliminating the Russian squad in the location in addition to the one above. On the German final turn, the Russians were able to maintain concealment in their last building hex upstairs, protected from bump concealment stripping by a broken Russian HS. The subsequent German APh attacks failed, to include boxcars for the FT. The German DC, however, was able to gain a TC, which the Russian squad failed. With the Russian squad pinned, 3 8-3-8s were able to advance into CC. The final DR of the final phase of the final turn decided the game, giving the German player a hard earned victory. |
| 2022-05-22 | (A) Tony Fermendzin | vs | Ben | | German win | | The Germans sure do have lots of toys in this one. However they seem to need all of them to take the building in the end.
The Germans forced their way through the town to the fortified building as the Russians did their best to delay them. The Germans were able to kill/capture most of the Russian forces that defended the town preventing them from getting back into the fortified building.
Once the Germans were able to get into the fortified building the fight was epic, with the Germans slowly forcing Russians back into a corner of the building on the last turn. With some lucky breaks they were able to pin the Russians down, breach their final location with a DC, and finish them off in CC on the last turn. |
| 2022-04-18 | (D) Jonathan Plott | vs | Steve Boro | | German win | | An improper set-up by the Russian player (me) discovered after the match began led to this becoming a training opportunity where Steve patiently walked me through a number of the differences between SK and ASL IRT to urban fights in large multi-level fortified buildings. My third opportunity to "sit down across the (VASL) table" with a live opponent to play full-rules ASL, and it has been a blast....multiple DC attacks on your positions will do that for you. Many thanks for the patient tutelage, Steve! |
| 2022-04-10 | (A) Jeff Wright | vs | Joe Armold | | German win | | |
| 2022-03-23 | (A) David Garvin | vs | Dan Janezick | | Russian win | | Wow, what a match. In the end, he had one squad in one fortified location that in spite of an IFT 24 DRM 0 FT attack, and many other attacks, would not even pin! Great match! |
| 2022-03-19 | (D) Dave Mareske | vs | Matt Zajac | | German win | | March Madness 2022, round 3. Came down to the last CC. Very Fun! |
| 2022-03-19 | (D) Paul Works | vs | Scott Martin | | German win | | |

| 2021-11-05 | (D) Jacob Elmqvist | vs | Ingemar Gardell | | Russian win | | |
| 2021-09-25 | (D) Michael Rodgers | vs | Bill Thomson | | Russian win | | Russians did not break for the first half of the game which delayed the Germans too much. |
| 2021-09-10 | (A) Dave Mareske | vs | Craig Renier | | German win | | Always a great fight. The German FT created two flames and one of the DCs rubbled a building. The fight lasted through turn 6 with little hope for victory. A good upfront defense and was able to get some of the squads back into the fortified location, but many were broken and failed to rally back. The German 10-2 ended up going heroic and winning the day in CC and throwing DCs around the victory building. |
| 2021-08-22 | (D) Chris Turner | vs | Derek Cox | | German win | | Russians quickly collapsed after the factory was surrounded without a single German unit being broken in the process. |
| 2021-03-26 | (A) Dmitry Klyuykov | vs | Fedor Grachev | | German win | | |
| 2021-01-13 | (D) Chris Anthony | vs | Paul Wright | | Russian win | | Good tense game. It was Paul's first full ASL game, with lots of lessons on smoke and urban fighting. The Germans ran out of time to take the whole building, but pushed hard to the end. 2 Soviet squads remained unbroken inside the factory at the end. |
| 2021-01-08 | (A) manzoli andrea | vs | Raffaele Di Ianni | | German win | | really a good teaching in using DC and thinking about at breaking the fortified locations.. |
| 2020-10-22 | (A) Shane Pask | vs | | | German win | | Reminiscent of SL 2 The Tractor Works. Lots of low rolls early and an unreliable Russian MMG forced the Russians back to their strong point. A DC breach opened the way in and a FT squad and 10-2 leader snuck in the other end on T5 to wreak havoc and capture the 8-1. The commissar valiantly held out to the last turn with squads breaking all around him (and rallying with him - he only had to shoot one or two). However, when he was wounded on the last turn, everyone else surrendered (5 1/2 squads). |
| 2020-08-30 | (A) Macari Samuel | vs | Jean-Carlo Debolle | | Russian win | | Germans lost almost 5 squads during the first turn. It turn to Mission:I Impossible but a better moment in the middle of the game allowed German to reach the fortified building. It wasn't sufficient, the lack of German forces made the Russians win. |
| 2020-07-21 | (D) Raoul Duke | vs | JA | | Russian win | | Played under similar circumstances as Duke vs Brian K below, only with an even tighter margin. Germans must play VERY aggressively in the early turns, and probably need to enter the target building on or before Turn 4 in order to have a shot at winning. Rooting out the Soviets can be incredibly tough, especially if they can retain concealment. |
| 2020-07-16 | (D) Raoul Duke | vs | Brian K | | Russian win | | A wonderful scenario, and a *fantastic* teaching scenario. Germans get plenty of fun toys, but they've gotta move fast in order to secure the building before the clock runs out. The Soviets can (and should!) get a commissar, and can turn the target building into a deadly game of whac-a-mole played with flamethrowers, high explosives, and bayonets.
This particular game featured some wild results from the Heat of Battle table. The 10-2 battle hardened into a 10-3. We got sent down a rules rabbit hole as a berserk squad tried to break into a fortified building.
In the end though, it wasn't quite enough. The Soviets were able to keep an unbroken, unpinned squad in the target building through the final AFPh, and the Germans weren't able to enter to root it out in CC. Soviet Win. |
| 2020-07-16 | (A) Brian K | vs | Duke Raoul | | Russian win | | 1st full ASL game
|
| 2020-05-14 | (A) Kai Glanz | vs | Steven Cook | | Russian win | | Nice scenario to learn infantry city fights. Enjoyed the scenario a lot. A lot of toys like FTs, DCs on the German side. |
| 2020-04-18 | (A) Doba Serge | vs | Pascal Boileau | | German win | | |
| 2020-04-18 | (D) Pascal Boileau | vs | Doba Serge | | German win | | A really fun and furious game. I tried desperately to slow down the German progression toward the fortified building. However, this strategy was too costly for the Russians units. Only half of the defenders remained to whistand the final assault. It was not enough and the Germans seized completely the victory building during their last turn. A very nice scenario. |
| 2020-03-24 | (A) David Garvin | vs | Matias Dahlbäck | | German win | | My first smoke placement attempt was a 6. But after that, it was all Garvin. Matias forced me to keep the pressure on him and I was able to finally isolate the building and attack it from north to south, breaching my way into the fortified locations.
In the end, I forced his hand and was able to wrest the building from him. |
| 2020-03-24 | (D) Matias Dahlbäck | vs | David Garvin | | German win | | You know that moment when you think that you still have a chance but then you see that small slimmer of shining hope get extinguished in a simulated series of explosions and smokes and flames and the horrible anguished cries of your men, your soldiers, who trusted you? That moment? Yeah. |
| 2020-01-31 | (A) Matt Peterson | vs | Rich T | | In progress | | |

| 2019-12-16 | (D) David Garvin | vs | Nick Faryna | | Russian win | | Came to the end, but I held onto a sliver of the building for the win |
| 2019-12-03 | (A) Paul Works | vs | Scott Martin | | German win | | My first shots took out most of his screening troops up front on Turn 1. I moved up in a broad front and was able to get my engineers up next to the VC building with their DCs and FTs. A flank force got around the right side of the VC building. Both strong stacks pressed and were able to break and kill the remaining Russian units in the back-side, first-level hexes on the last turn. Fun. Scott is always tough and great to play! We've had some doozys. |
| 2019-10-14 | (D) Jeff B | vs | Neal Ekengren | | Russian win | 3.25 hrs | Germans were quite tentative in their approach, not approaching within arm's length until Turn 4. They had quite a few mechanical problems. One FT ran out of fuel on its first shot on Turn 2 , one MMG broke for good on Turn 3, and their AEs only managed a 50% success rate with smoke. There were not a lot of casualties but, between good Russian IFT rolls and bad German MCs, there was a fair amount of breaking. By Turn 5 the Germans rightly figured they stood little chance of even entering the building, let alone ousting all the Russians who had packed it to the gills. |

| 2018-11-11 | (D) Scott Fischbein | vs | Joe Sterphone | | Russian win | | Joe's second game - he wasn't quite quick enough moving the Germans up for the assault on the fortified building, so didn't get enough of them inside by the end. Great intro to city fighting! |
| 2018-11-10 | (D) Jeff B | vs | Ben Stacey | | Russian win | 5.75 hrs | Per the script, the Germans were pretty much funneled up the middle. Russians lost a squad early trying to dash into the fort. Turn 2 saw the Germans already across the street. Germans lost another 1.5 squads (including a full AE) while the Russians lost another of their own. Machine gun point (V4) was put under constant fire and constant breaking. The commissar provided no help to his troops, constantly whittling away their ranks with severity. Turn saw the Germans knocking on the door and proved to be bloody for both sides, with each losing 1.5 squads, and the Germans losing a 9-1. Russians kept shuffling concealed units to replace the broken, but they were running low on bodies. Turn 4 was another bloody one, with the Germans losing another 2.5 squads (and yet another AE) and an 8-0, while the Russians lost 1.5. Every hex but one was still defended by a full squad though, and they had taken prisoners which helped by allowing them to deploy. Turn 5 saw more blood, but this time the Russians got the worst of it by losing 2.5 squads to 1.5 for the Germans. But Turn 6 swung the other way again with the Germans losing 1.5 to only a HS for the Russians. In the end the Germans just did not have enough bodies left and only managed to get a toehold on this last turn. |

| 2018-09-09 | (A) Derek Rowe | vs | Alan | | German win | | Excellent game. Lots of Toys for the German player and great Close Combat. |
| 2018-08-11 | (A) David Garvin | vs | Keith Talbot | | German win | | |
| 2018-08-04 | (D) Louis Langdeau | vs | Lee M | | Russian win | | Germans made a solid push of it, but they got busted up too heavily on their first push into the fortified building. |
| 2018-08-04 | (D) Louis Langdeau | vs | Lee M | | Russian win | | A very quick play that we called after the Germans got diced up badly while crossing the first few streets. |
| 2018-06-13 | (A) Louis Langdeau | vs | Arno L | | Russian win | | A really fun scenario! Germans REALLY need to move to make this work. I came into this knowing that my assault engineers were going to be the key to the whole scenario. As such, my first few turns were spent lobbing smoke with my 838s, while keeping them back from the main fighting. My initial push went really well, shoving right through the central screen of dummies and Russian squads that Arno had set up. I followed that up by continuing to push aggressively down the middle, and by Turn 3 I was starting to get into position against the building. I made two crucial errors at this point. The first was using my FTs on non-critical enemy units. Both seemed like good shots at the time. One was a full squad about to rout into 1X4 where a commissar waited to rally him, and the other was a sticky squad in the wood buildings out front of 1X4 holding up my advance. Both shots caused my FTs to run out of gas, which left me without their fire for the fortified building. The second big mistake was a push with my Assault Engineers and 10-2 on the turn before I was really set up to push everywhere. There was a bit of an opening that could have let me get into the wood buildings out front, and it would have broken two full squads and an LMG positioned there. Arno's dice heated up though, and it cost me a turn of rallying and a full 838 squad. By the time I had got back into position and started breaching, it was too late. Arno had pulled back the rest of his squads masterfully, and skulked his way through the last few turns. I got into the building and took a good amount from him, but my last turn needed some really good rolls to close it out, and relying on rolls is never a sign of great tactical acumen. Really fun scenario though, and one I would definitely play again. |
| 2018-05-30 | (D) Jeff B | vs | John Malaska | | Russian win | 6 hrs | The third time was the charm for me, having failed as both the attacker and defender previously. I focused almost my entire defense on stocking the VC building with bodies. My opponent was super "hot" with his FT rolls, and having AEs to toss smoke is so much different than when I played the original TAC version. I slowed him down just enough on Turn 6 to allow my men to hold the last column of the building at game end. |
| 2018-05-30 | (A) John Malaska | vs | Jeff Buser | | Russian win | | Belatedly, posting my thoughts. German has some powerful tools at his disposal (Smoke!!). But, as a returning newbie, I became enamored with my firepower & forgot that the scenario's clock was ticking. Arrived at the fortified building a turn too late. |
| 2018-05-09 | (D) Allen Evenson | vs | Arno Lebenhagen | | German win | | Made it to German Turn 6 before Russians pushed out of the building. Fun game but, it was tough on the Russians this time - couldn't slow the Germans down enough. |
| 2018-04-08 | (D) Lawrence Spangler | vs | Diane Spangler | | Russian win | | |

| 2018-02-16 | (D) Ricardo Garcia | vs | Laurent Le Billan | | German win | | My first (and last for now) game in the ASL league. Hopefully, in the future, I will be playing more in the league. |
| 2018-02-03 | (D) Kermit Mullins | vs | Dan Best | | German win | | Hard fought game. My Russians survived for 5-1/2 turns before succumbing to the German 10-2 and his flamethrowers. I think this is a tough scenario for the Russians if they can't knock off the Germans early. Once Dan's Germans were in the building it was game over for my boys. |

| 2017-10-20 | (D) LOUIS PADOL | vs | Garry Kaluzny | | Russian win | | As a newer player, and newer wargamer, I have read up a lot about the debate between realism and game mechanics. I really experienced it with this scenario. I win while having a lone HS remaining! Great fun though, ASL can be addicting. |

| 2016-10-01 | (A) Michael Rodgers | vs | Chad Cumminngs | | Russian win | | Chad and I discussed the scenario. I wanted to play the Germans and gave him the Russian balance to do so. My attack did not go well. I should have mixed the 838 with the 467 as much as legal, and I should have put the HMG MMG combo with the best German leader because the Russians concealed in the fortified victory building. |
| 2016-07-15 | (A) Simon Staniforth | vs | | | Draw | | |
| 2016-02-28 | (D) leo zhu | vs | Flying7 | | German win | | Leo Zhu command Russian against elite German units directed by Flying7. German formed several power strength and got a great start that elim all two dummies and break two RUS squads then clear the column Q soon. Russian ELR is only 2 and roll almost all big number and replaced with conscript. Broken Russian try to rout to fortified building while enclosed by German and were killed. Finally, German cost only 5 turns to secure victory in little cost. By the way, Commissar(9-0) only rally 4 times and kill two conscript! The two German FT always run well and never breakdown once. |
| 2015-09-05 | (D) Martí Cabré | vs | Òscar Oliver | | Russian win | | An excellent classic scenario that we had not played before. I put a mixed defense of point units, dummies and a strong force in the fortified building in order to slowly stall the German advance. The Germans advanced perfectly, combining devastating firepower and good street crossings, using infantry smoke and not risking attacks with FFNAM/FFMO. We studied the German options during the game and Òscar skillfully achieved each target front line on schedule, being able to reach the fortified building on Turn 4 in order to have 3 turns to clean it, still having the 2 FT and the 4 DC and all engineers alive and well. There was only one German stack that had been stuck fighting in a building against a single Russian squad that held anything thrown against it: firepower, encirclement, CC attacks, evetually killing two or three German squads and going back to the fortified building. True Soviet Heroes! Also a couple of my dummy stacks managed to draw enough fire to stall him for about a turn. On the other hand, the Germans got a fanatic unit and a hero. Neither sniper activated in the whole scenario.
The Germans managed to capture about 4 Russian squads that he gave to a HS guard and launched everything else on the fortified building. That was a bloody affair with his overwhelming firepower and I choose to slowly retreat and not fire to keep my concealment. Having every location fortified, he had to pin or break my units in order to CC them. One squad turned berserk, pushing to morale 10 and resisting 2 DC attacks against them. He also sprayed the street to leave some residual fire that broke a FT wielder in a nice ASL touch. The Commissar did a fine job resurrecting about four squads and killing just one and they held until the end, resisting also 2 DC attacks. In the end a couple of squads were intact in the last Russian location for a win of an excellent game. |

The basic German and Russian forces are close to equal. If it weren't for the bad-a** Sturmabteilung featuring 5x8-3-8, a 10-2, 2xFT and 4xDC on the German side and the Russian ELR of 2 on the other. The Germans need to cross several streets, for which they need their assault engineers' infantry smoke. They must be quick about it because clearing 1X4 - a seven hex lvl 1 stone building in which ALL locations are fortified is not an easy thing to do. The Russians in turn need to think on how much of its forces it sets up to delay the Germans and be very careful to think of paths to get back to safety and eventually the big victory building. The commissar they can trade is pivotal for their survival.
My opponent chose a defensive setup which was rather up front. It appeared that I would not be getting anywhere quickly. On the other hand this opened up some opportunities to cut paths of retreat which was just as well. I carefully crafted an offensive setup to match his one only to find out that I am not allowed to set up on the road in my setup area. All right, a little reshuffling and the "perfect" plan was a little upset. My main punch came through the center. The assault engineers were quite handy with their infantry smoke grenades. In German turn 2 I had the 10-2 and 2x8-3-8 with 2xDC and FT in the S5 building. The going on the flanks was a little slower but still acceptable. Due to my opponent doing a bit to much Prep instead of skulking, I was able to inflict some damage and to mess up some paths of retreat. Then came the Wind Change to mild breeze in the "perfect" direction from the Russian viewpoint: I would not be able to place smoke in my three foreward hexes for crossing the streets. Despite of this, I relied on the 10-2 to brave a Dash from T4 to V5 together with the 8-3-8+FT and 8-3-8+2xDC. The defending shot broke the 10-2 while luckily the 8-3-8s survived but were both pinned by the 2LLTC. My 10-2 almost died for failure to rout but could low crawl to T5 as his single option. Luckily I managed to regain my footing after this dangerous situation and managed to push forward on the flanks, keeping some Russians under DM. The Russian commissar in the victory building helped a bit by shooting 1.5 squad equivalents. So start German turn 4, there was not that Russian infantry in position to threaten my push across U5/U6. It did not help him, that a concript HS did not manage to find the Russian MMG that had been dropped by a brokie before. By some potentially sacrificial moves, I forced first fire on his defenders that allowed the rest of the Germans to make a run to close in on the victory building in force. The Russians tried to evade these in turn 4 but thus was bottled up around Y3 after his turn 4. German turn 5 saw a flooding of the victory buidling moving ADJACENT to the remaining 1.5 Russian squad equivalents and Commissar in Y3 ground and 1st level and Y4 first level. German advancing fire stripped concealment, the two FTs broke the MMCs, German infantry (partly CX but concealed) was poised to go into CC with the single concealed Russian commissar. At this point, during the German AFPh, the Russian conceded as all of his MMCs would have been dead after the Rally Phase and his only surviving Commissar would have faced a 10(+1):1(-1) CC with the Germans still having two turns of time. Grisly affair.
A nice scenario altogether good for teaching purposes. |

| 2013-04-01 | (A) Richard Agnew | vs | solo | | Russian win | | This looked like an easy German victory. The Pioneers steamrolled the Russian defences, and sent the few survivors reeling back to the Fortified Building.
They withstood all defensive fire, breaching the walls in two places on the 2nd last turn. An 8-3-8 entered the breach and engaged a 5-2-7 in CC, but remained locked in Meele. Two 4-6-7's and a 10-2 leader reinforced the German effort on the last turn. At 3-1 odds (and a -2 drm), the outcome seemed all but certain. Icredibly, the German rolled an 11 as the last Soviet squad refused to die...amazing...what a finish! |
| 2013-03-15 | (D) Russell Dewhurst | vs | David H | | German win | | I lasted out till the final, 7th turn, but only had 2 HS by then. I was too aggressive early on (trying to destroy his FTs). ELR of 2 was punishing, and my Commissar shot more half squads than he rallied. |

Made two crucial newbie mistakes at the end: forgot to use breach to allow advance into CC, and routed a leader out of position which allowed a crucial enemy to gain concealment and resist my final attack. Great game though! Chris took the extra Russian squad for balance. |
