ASL – Quick 6

Quick 6 is an Advanced Squad Leader (ASL) scenario pack featuring six fast-playing, low-to-medium complexity engagements designed for shorter play sessions than standard historical modules.

The pack includes small-scale World War II tactical battles focused on local actions such as ambushes, limited-objective assaults, reconnaissance fights, and intense infantry engagements on compact maps. The goal is to provide a more direct ASL experience while retaining the system’s tactical depth.

Game System
The module is designed for Advanced Squad Leader, the standard tactical system for WWII squad-level combat.

The scenarios use full ASL rules but are optimized for smaller maps, reduced unit counts, and straightforward objectives. Emphasis is placed on quick setup, fast turns, and immediate tactical tension.

Included Scenarios

Q6-1 – Roadblock Encounter
Meeting engagement around an improvised roadblock between opposing forces in motion.

Q6-2 – Village Assault
Infantry assault against a defended fortified village.

Q6-3 – Bridge at Dawn

Q6-4 – Hilltop Skirmish

Q6-6 – Last Stand Line
Final defensive stand by an outnumbered force against a coordinated attack.

Objective
Each scenario features simple, direct objectives such as area control, enemy elimination, or holding positions until game end.
