Episode 205: That's the Way it Goes Folks

Fall is fast approaching and so is the next episode.  We just can't believe how fast time flies. Or how long this episode is.  It seems like only yesterday we were celebrating #200 together. In this show Dave confesses his big mistake in tracking what we have covered and have not covered in the rules so far, he apologizes for covering the infantry fire rules again.    Therefore, we cover the rules from opportunity fire to rule 7.32.  Our goal is to cover the entire Advanced Squad Leader rule book before we conclude this show. After that Dave presents the first eight or so of the scenarios from the Forgotten War module. Boy, they look neat! To steal a pun from Donovon.  They ROK!   How about that opening song? The lyrics were provided by Rob Banozic and the song was performed by The 2 Half Squad Singers.            SHOWTIMES 00:01 Song: He's Got Really Hot Snake Eyes 04:00 Banter 16:10 The Rules 51:25 Half of The Forgotten War Scenarios  1:27:25 Total Running Time   REALLY HOT SNAKE-EYES (to the tune of "Bette Davis Eyes" Lyrics by Rob Banozic)   His rolls are always low I've never seen 'em high His dice are never cold He's got really hot snake-eyes He'll turn the MGs on you You won't pass a check twice It's cold as East Front snow He's got really hot snake-eyes   And they'll break you, they'll crit-hit you They're the bones that will defeat you They're atrocious, 'cause he always gets the Rolls that make the stacks crush God! why do I always roll so high, he's got really hot snake-eyes   You like your +3 stone The place to stand and fight But all you do is moan He's got really hot snake-eyes He'll take a '1' shot on you And roll those wicked dice Until you give up, too He's got really hot snake-eyes   They'll DM you, when he plays you Trash your plan with the dice he loans you They're ferocious 'cause he always gets the Rolls that make the stacks crush All the boys think it's just fine, to get really hot snake-eyes   And they'll break you, they'll crit-hit you They're the bones that will defeat you They're atrocious, 'cause he always gets the Rolls that make the stacks crush   All the boys think it's just fine, to get really hot snake-eyes
