Can't thank you enough for your series of videos on ASL! I just finished up watching all of the (currently existing) tutorials in your ASL Boot Camp Series and can't wait for future additions! Between your Boot Camp and the VASL 101/201 series of videos, you have significantly raised my level of understanding and enjoyment of this magnificent obsession we call ASL! Became a supporter and hope to keep you in pizza for as many years as you keep cranking out this great content! Thanks again!
Great video! I believe that the squad in the first example can rout to both woods hexes, because the Russian squad in N9 is not KEU at the start of the phase. Of course the German squad must then bounce once adjacent. Cheers
You're correct. Odd, I used to have a pinned comment (of mine) asking for people to point out alternate routs or things I might have missed. But the pinned comment is gone. Hmmm...
Great video Neil! I played squad leader back in the early 80s and have recently gotten back into the hobby. Your videos are a great source for me plus your teaching technique is simple to understand. Question on the unit in M8. I believe this unit has to route to either M9 or N8 as the Russian in N9 is not in LOS. From there they would bounce. Correct me if I am wrong. Please keep up the good work and roll low.
Thanks again for all your vids and tutorial they mean alot there helping me get my recsent battle with my fight and Cancer helps me get through the daily pain and keeps mind thinking and focused thanks from Canada s
Neal, approx 10:12, the graphic for “NO”… : Question - Shouldn’t the text read “If, as Interdictor, has any Positive Fire Modifier Apply” instead of Negative?
Question for German squad three's route - since distance to a KEU is assessed at path selection, wouldn't F5 be an illegal target for declaration on the onset? The destination of F5 will reduce squad three's distance to the broken KEU in hex I7.
Yeah, you're probably right. The real target would have been J1, but they would have had to rout over the hill: H2-I2-J1. They couldn't have routed through I3.
Could squad 1 route one hex to the south and then bounce to the adjacent German squad? The broken squad does not have los to the Russian squad in n9 at the start of the route so he would route away from the keu in los first.
So Neal. In the second example using bypass movement , couldn’t he head to the woods at 10 o’clock by using the lower vertex of the K hex? Because he starts by heading in a south westerly direction and then swings around the other vertex to a north westerly direction .
@Can it be interdicted - You should be using the term Positive modifiers apply not Negative. - Your voice over speaks the truth the Point bulletin is incorrect @16:58 the squad A in M8 can route to M9 and discovering the Russian squad could then continue on to L9 and then further if it chose to. Squad 3 must route to J1as going the way you chose is having him end up closer to the guy on the hill. As a J1 is only 4 mp away Routing unit in S6 must surrender if NQ is NOT in effect
It has no LOS to E7 at the beginning of the RPh (when it's in F4) due to the woods in F5, so it can move to E5. At that point it can see E7, but isn't moving any close to it once it sees the Russian squad there. It's not moving close to E7 by moving from E5 to D5. Both of those hexes are at a 2 hex range to E7.
@@ASLAcademy 24:05 Broken Russian unit (C4) doesn't have LOS because German unit(F4) is on hill (also no LOS in E5 during routing), right? I'm learning with your videos and reading SK. This series is very helpful!

Awesome job ! Want to see the Advance phase and CC Phase now !

@@ASLAcademy love your videos - the best ASL vids I have seen. Looking forward to more!
Great stuff - I know this is a lot of work, thank you. Watching again…so impressed with your video quality
Good video. I wasn't grasping the difference between broken units and NEUs as they relate to routing. Now I think I got it.

Correct it’s “Known to the Unit” not “Known to the player

@@ASLAcademy Thanks again.
At last! Thank you, sir!!!
And I'm back... Got a lot to work on routing. Got a few squads to rout coming up in my PBeM game!
@@ASLAcademy oh many corrections were made by my gracious opponent. 😂
In the example the first unit can and actually must go N8 or M9 as the soviet unit in that direction is not KEU.

@ASLAcademy Thank you. Loving the series!
33:08 When Unit 4 moves to I8(34:50) you say that L9 is now KEU. Does J8 hex hill stops LOS between I8-L9?
Could squad 1 route one hex to the south and then bounce to the adjacent German squad? The broken squad does not have los to the Russian squad in n9 at the start of the route so he would route away from the keu in los first.
Correct!

How can Ger Squad #4 move from E5 to D5 ? I thought he wouldn't be allowed to move closer to the KEU in E7 ?
It has no LOS to E7 at the beginning of the RPh (when it's in F4) due to the woods in F5, so it can move to E5. At that point it can see E7, but isn't moving any close to it once it sees the Russian squad there. It's not moving close to E7 by moving from E5 to D5.
