Paratrooper
From Advanced Squad Leader
Paratrooper 2nd Edition |
Paratrooper was the second ASL module published by Avalon Hill. It was intended to act as a bridge between Squad Leader and ASL. An ASL player only required the ASL Rulebook and the boards from Squad Leader to play the scenarios. All the units and information counters were contained in the module. Paratrooper contained Chapter K to assist new players.
When Paratrooper was republished by MMP in 2001, Chapter K was removed as this was now included in the second edition Rulebook.
When Yanks was republished by MMP in 2015, the scenarios from Paratrooper were included.
Contents (1st Edition)
- 1 mounted map (24)
- 4 counter sheets
- 8 scenarios
- Chapter K Squad Leader Training Manual
Contents (2nd Edition)
- 3 mounted maps (2, 4, 24)

Reviews
Errata (1st Edition)
- The Motion counters should not contain the words "No Ordnance". Add "TH: 2 × (higher) dr" to these counters as well.
- All ½" Smoke counters should have green printing on the white background since they are removed at the end of each MPh.
