For the discussion of all things Advanced Squad Leader (ASL) - the small-unit tactics board game by Avalon Hill/Multi-Man Publishing.

#Rules of the subreddit:

1. Be civil. Remember the human and follow the reddiquette. Also remember that some people are brand-new to the game- dumb questions and disagreements are allowed, but personal attacks are not. Comments or attacks on the basis of age, race, ethnicity, national origin, religion, sexual orientation, or gender identity will absolutely not be permitted.

2. Content must pertain to Advanced Squad Leader. The definition of "pertains to" will be kept pretty broad, but be realistic. No low-effort content, no spam, no NSFW content.

3. No excessive marketing or self-promotion. It's cool to try to buy or sell your stuff, or share a neat shop/product that you found, but repeated posts and/or comments doing so aren't so cool.

4. No pirated content. Avoid sharing copyrighted content and material that is still in print. Use your best judgement on material that is no longer available in the real world, but consider this your first and only warning if there is a complaint by the original creator/copyright owner.

5. No real-world politics. Only ~80-year-old politics, and only in the context of the board game. Or just none at all would be nice.
