Brent Pollock Posted June 18, 2004 Share Posted June 18, 2004 Western board is 23, eastern is 16 They're abutted long edge-on. Board 23's number is north, while 16's is flipped south. Only rows R-GG on 23 and A-P on 16 are in play. If you need more info let me know - time to head to work.

Hans Posted June 18, 2004 Author Share Posted June 18, 2004 Thanks Brent Can you give me any other information on what the scenario says and which one it is (number?) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sirocco Posted June 18, 2004 Share Posted June 18, 2004 I'm guessing it's 87? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brent Pollock Posted June 18, 2004 Share Posted June 18, 2004 I should have time tonight to enter the INTRO/OB/AFTERMATH/SSRs...you've already got the number, as noted by Sirocco -> ASL87, and that's how I found it in my pile.

Brent Pollock Posted June 18, 2004 Share Posted June 18, 2004 Don't thank me too quickly...I think this thing might have motorcycles in it...maybe even a Nimbus [i think that's the one with the 20 mm ATR or AA gun in the sidecar]...so it could all be for nought.

Brent Pollock Posted June 19, 2004 Share Posted June 19, 2004 ...yup..it's got a Nimbus. Okay, here we go...let's see how much typing I can get done before I have to head out of the house... VC: The Germans win at game end [it's 7 turns, by the way] by having >= 21 VP of Good Order Infantry/Mobile AFV (with some functioning MA/MG) west of the canal (counted as CVP). Danish OB: [ELR:1] {SAN:2} set up on any whole/half hex of board 23 (see SSR 3): 4 x 457 1st line 2 x 437 green 2 x 228 crew 1 x 8-1 1 x 8-0 1 x HMG 1 x MMG 1 x LMG 1 x 37L Bofors AT (AP only) 1 x 20L M-35 AT 2 x WIRE Enter on Turn 2 along the West edge of board 23: 1 x Nimbus (a 20L MG armed motorcycle) German OB: [ELR: 3] {SAN: 2} Enter on Turn 1 along the east edge of board 16: 2 x 468 Elite 7 x 467 1st line 3 x 447 2nd line 1 x 9-1 1 x 8-1 1 x 8-0 3 x LMG 1 x 9-1 AL 2 x Pz IIF Enter on turn 4 along the south edge of board(s) 16/23, east of the canal: 1 x Pz IIF SSR: 1. EC are Moderate with a Mild Breeze from the southeast at start. 2. All buildings are Single Story Houses [EXC: hex 23Y7 contains a Steeple Location at both Level 1 and Level 2 (B31.2)]. All roads are paved (B3.). 3. The Danish 37mm Bofors AT Gun has a B# of 10, must set up unconcealed in a road hex (as must the M-35 AT Gun), and any Danish crew manning it is Fanatic (A10.8). Boresighting is NA. 4. Surrender may not be refused (i.e., a surrendering unit may not be eliminated thereby invoking No Quarter (A20.3). Danish personnel surrender on a Final Heat of Battle DR > 8. German units suffering ELR are not Replaced but instead become Disrupted (A19.2). Could be a real bugger to convert to CM...no time to type the Intro and Aftermath. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GJK Posted June 19, 2004 Share Posted June 19, 2004 Have you seen this particular remake on the SD? Same name at least as CH87: ASL-CM Rolling Down Rollbahn D 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hans Posted June 19, 2004 Author Share Posted June 19, 2004 Thanks for the tip GJK, seems to be a different fight, somewhere in Belgium. But will take a closer look....if I can find my CMBO disk.... Hey Brent, you could scan it and post it as an image! Thanks for the work Hans 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hans Posted June 19, 2004 Author Share Posted June 19, 2004 Oh I contacted some Danish miniature wargame clubs-those miniature guys are usually a fountain of information on local battles. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brent Pollock Posted June 19, 2004 Share Posted June 19, 2004 Sorry - no scanning coming from me. And don't get fooled by ASL scenarios having the same digits: ASL### = core module CH### = a Critical Hit production J### = ASL Journal RB### = Red Barricades HASL module PB### = Pegasus Bridge HASL module etc. You can end up with several haing the same ### but a different prefix denoting a different source. I'll be intrigued by how you adjust for the Nimbus and the SSRs. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hans Posted June 19, 2004 Author Share Posted June 19, 2004 Thanks Brent I was a PanzerBlitz player and never got into ASL so its an unknown world for me. If you can get me that Intro and other info it will be appreciated. I probably won't do a direct translation of the ASL, but will use some of the information to build a new scenario using (hopefully) maps and diagrams from an unknown Danish source. Nimbus? Kubelwagen with LMG team and a gentlemens rule that the two stay together! SSR....that is what? Is that unit quality? The Danish will be green, conscripts and a sprinkling of regulars. From one Danish source one of the fights (not Haberslev) was led by a Danish officer with experience in the French Foreign Legion and fighting with the Monarchists in the Spanish Civil War. Germans will be regulars, some green and a sprinkling of vets. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brent Pollock Posted June 19, 2004 Share Posted June 19, 2004 SSR = Scenario Special Rule Nimbus substitute...maybe a jeep/truck with a 20 L ATR/AA? INTRO: HADERSLEV, DENMARK, 9 April 1940: The invasion of Denmark was part of operation Weseru:bung, the effort to secure the vital ore mines in Norway. Strong German motorized forces crossed the border early in the morning of April 9th. The small Danish garrison units near the border took up the fight against German forces ten times larger. Several German armored cars were damaged or destroyed, and the Germans soon learned to fear the 20mm guns mounted on Nimbus motorcycles poised for ambush at every major road intersection. By the time the Germans had reached Haderslev 60km north of the border, they had the tanks in the forefront. AFTERMATH: Three companies were present in Haderslev, augmented by mobilizing army reserves-the largest Danish force to see combat. The local commander set up a strong defence along the canal, which split the town in two. Action commmenced when several approaching German tanks were engaged by the crew of an anti-tank gun positioned out in the open on the road just south of the canal; the crew kept on firing until overrun. The Germans were stopped at the canal but soon slipped by amidst Danish confusion over the cease-fire ordered by the government. By the time things were straightened out, the Germans were racing north to catch up with the paratroopers who had just captured the airport at Aalborg, vital to the invasion of Norway. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hans Posted June 19, 2004 Author Share Posted June 19, 2004 Thanks Brent, oops that nimbus was Danish, hmmmm, some sorta Brit weapon truck/vehicle mounted thingy from the early years should be able to model that. Now to find a map of Haderslev! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
