Bisogna veramente essere dei wargamer con la W maiuscola per digerire il sistema ASL ma se ne avete il tempo e la passione e sopratutto un amico con cui giocare di meglio non esiste nulla.

YANKS now includes the essential elements of PARATROOPER and 24 additional scenarios.
Chapter H contains over 20 pages of detailed notes on the guns and vehicles, complete with some minor updates to the original. Also included are eight mapboards: 16-19, 24, 40-41, and 46, which will help you play many of the 40 scenarios inside YANKS: the 16 original scenarios from YANKS and PARATROOPER (all re-balanced) as well as 24 more out-of-print scenarios, re-numbered and re-balanced, all with existing errata incorporated. (New errata have been issued for the old scenarios to reflect the balancing changes made in these updates.)
