The 2 Half-Squads

Episode 168: Sandstorms Never Bother Me

Episode 167: Get a Load of That Clown

When we dive into the desert rules we climb a hillock, trudge through sand, rest in a sangar before leaping over a cactus hedge and into a cactus patch, which hurts a lot.  So we head through the broken terrain, past an olive grove and stop in the vineyard to have a drink and rest for the evening.

Episode 166: Beefy BFP and Yanks

We were lucky enough to catch Rick Reinesch and Sam Tyson for a 30 minute conversation about what's up at BFP.

Episode 165: P-e-e-e-rry Interesting

Episode 164: Hammada, Hammada, Hammada

Scrub the dust of your shoes, write your "Deir Jane" letter, figure out wadi you talking about, then prepare yourself for the second episode of The 2 Half-Squads that covers the desert rules that were released in the Advanced Squad Leader module West of Alamein.  That was the one that introduced the desert stuff. We dust off our desert terrain rules and cover Scrub, Wadi's, Hammada and more.

Episode 163: Save Room For Desert

You can roam through the desert on a horse with no name, but the trip would be much improved if you took this episode along with you to get you through the boring stretches of vast, waterless terrain.  We finally bring you the beginning or a 3 or 4 part series covering the Desert rules for the Advanced Squad Leader game system.  But first, we take a look at some of the scenarios that we have been playing lately, then we grab our pith helmets, water bottles and sun tan lotion and head into the parched desert.
