ASL – Quick 6 V

Quick 6 V is an Advanced Squad Leader (ASL) scenario pack created for participants of the 2022 West Coast Rumble tournament. Following the philosophy of the series, it delivers six fast-playing engagements with minimal setup time and maximum tactical action.

The pack covers multiple World War II theaters including Normandy, the Ardennes, Italy, and the Pacific. These small-scale battles are specifically designed for tournament play while maintaining the full tactical depth of ASL.

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

The six scenarios feature small orders of battle, limited map areas, and straightforward special rules. No scenario uses night fighting, air support, or complex artillery rules, helping keep games fast and accessible.
