Le Franc Tireur has put out another gem. Le Franc Tireur #15 featuring some fantastic maps from Steve  Swan and Tom Repetti. We take a look at these fun boards as well as the new Arid/Desert rules. Minarets on Mosques, can you believe it?  Before we get to that information we read some letters from our beloved listeners, we cover the British rules in the nationality section of the Advanced Squad Leader rulebook, and banter about Dave's favorite toy soldiers, Britain's Swoppet Knights.

SONG LYRICS (sung to "The Lumberjack Song" by Randolph King)

I play ASL and that's OK.

I play all night and I play all day



I move my troops, I rally well, I fire my panzerfausts

When opponents get too cocky, I bombard them to heck!



I rally well, I shoot big guns, I blitz my tanks alot

and if there's too much open, I lay the smoke I've got



I shoot big guns, MG's get rate, And often just for fun

I'll play in Frenchmen's clothing, and surrender on turn one!
