Dear Squad Leader Player:
The scenario “Reconnaissance in Force (A)” (RIF) is unbalanced and needs some tweeking. We need Play-Testers to help balance the scenario by playing a game and providing their feedback. The six turn scenario has a moderate pace of one game turn per week and a quick 10 question evaluation at the end. Players wishing to enjoy a game while participating in testing are invited to sign-up below through January 16th, 2012.
Play-Testers should be experienced enough to play through Scenario 2.
RIF is a SQL level scenario published by Squad Leader Academy, a Pre-ASL site that provides SL resources free of charge. RIF charges an American reconnaissance force to control or destroy three buildings with a mixed force of paratroopers, regular infantry, bazookas, MGs and a single DC. The Germans must employ their infantry and MGs to control at least one building at game’s end.
For the first time, we are using Google Sites to administer the play-testing. We believe this will provide a more communicative experience for the Play-Tester with a forum for ideas or questions on tactics, rules, play experience, etc. We encourage players to use the VSQL Scheduler, a Google calendar, to invite other member of the SL to community to see your game. Feel free to visit the site even if you’re not Play-testing.
Don’t miss the “Misc” page for a map and timeline of the original Pre-ASL Scenarios. Click on the map marker for Scenario info. The timeline is buggy but clicking ‘Pop-out’ sometimes fixes it.
I hope to see you at the games,
Bill Thomson, Founder
