Converting SL/ASL leaders to CM HQs


Recommended Posts

I quick subject search came up negative so here goes...

I'm starting to fiddle with tweaking Pegasus Bridge scenarios put out by others and settled on the following as a rule-of-thumb for converting the Squad Leader/ASL leader stats into CM terms:

ASL CM

Nationality SL Experience Command Combat Morale Stealth

Any 6+1 Conscript 0 0 0 0

Any 7-0 Green 0 0 0 0

Any 8-0 Regular 0 0 0 0

Any 8-1 Regular 0 +1 +1 +1

Russian 9-0 Regular +1 0 +2 0

Finnish 9-0 Veteran +1 0 0 0

Any 9-1 Veteran +1 +1 +1 +1

Any 9-2 Veteran +1 +2 +2 +2

Russian 10-0 Veteran +2 0 +2 0

Finnish 10-1 Crack +2 +1 +1 +1

Any 10-2 Crack +2 +2 +2 +2

Any 10-3 Elite +2 +2 +2 +2

[i sure hope this looks okay as the "Preview Post" function doesn't seem to be working for me.]

I realise it's a tad dry and doesn't take advantage of all the combinations and permutations, but I thought I'd toss it out there for all y'all to chew on and spit out/digest/have intetstinal troubles with.

[edit to try new tabulation format]

[another edit to remove the second tabulation, which looked the same as the first: if anyone wants a nicely tabulated one, I can send an EXCEL or WORD file]

I'll work on it in CMBO but will definitely use the CMAK engine if the Paras are in there.

As to Jim sharing Ortona info, he's always seemed eager to talk about it, but that was when I was much more into ASL; don't know how he'll feel about us using the info to crank out a CM version, but my view is he'll treat all platform versions of Ortona as a good thing. I'm certain he'd like to know what you've uncovered, and he's always been one for getting more CM-like realism into ASL (e.g. MG teams rather than squads using them as SWs; smoke being usable in mud/rain/snow).

Thanks, that looks vraiment tres groovy...except for the 6+1's line, which needs a nudge on the first variable.

What's the trick?

[edit to add the following]

Also, I forgot to mention that folks should probably pull off an ASL HS to promote the SL from a SMC to full CM HQ. How's that for abbreviation hell...

[2nd, 3rd, 4th, ad nauseum edits to add this]

Instead of ooing and awing and winghing about the typos, I should see if I've learned how to post with "tabs"...
