Introduction:
TWILIGHT OF THE REICH (TotR) takes Advanced Squad Leader players to the final stages of the war in the European theater, as 15 of its 17 scenarios concentrate on the Allied advance from the borders of Germany in 1944, through a series of Hitler-declared “fortress” cities, to the final struggle in 1945 for the heart of the Reich itself—Berlin.
To aid in the recreation of these struggles, TotR brings Debris and Rail Car rules and counters into the core ASL system and provides a series of large factory, graveyard, and railyard (complete with rail cars) overlays to help depict the fight for domination of key urban and heavily industrial terrain features. TotR provides an expanded late-war German SS Order of Battle and rules for SS ELR substitution familiar from Historical ASL modules. Also included are Soviet NKVD counters, Assault Engineer counters for several nationalities, and new German MMC counters that represent Volksgrenadier formations introduced toward the end of the war.
Ownership of the Advanced Squad Leader Game System is required for play.
