It was such a pleasure to talk with Michael Koch in our second episode on the ASL scene in Germany. The discussion covers WWII sites to see in Germany when you attend the Grenadier Tournament, the history of ASL, and the wonderful fact that there is just too much good Advanced Squad Leader stuff being published today. What a problem to have! Michael also gives us a detailed look at what it takes to run a tournament and chats about his love for the Hatten in Flames campaign game.  And so much more.

\\n\'You Hex-y Thing\' (Armoured Fighting Vehicles)

Lyrics by Clinton Paine, Performed by The 2 Half-Squad Singers
\\n
\\n
\\n
\\nArmoured fighting vehicles
\\n
\\nWend along this hex-y thing
\\n
\\nMy armoured fighting vehicles
\\n
\\nCould be moving wrong on this hex-y thing
\\n
\\n
\\n
\\nWith my first armoured OB
\\n
\\nMove crew exposed down the open road
\\n
\\nRoll for ESB, I need this speed so badly
\\n
\\nMy MMCs approach defending infantry
\\n
\\nIn PFPh I was shooting at some people
\\n
\\nNow they\'re firing back at me on the IFT
\\n
\\n
\\n
\\nBut my armoured fighting vehicles
\\n
\\nOverrun the hex they\'re in
\\n
\\nAnd my armoured fighting vehicles
\\n
\\nKeep rolling on, on this hex-y thing
\\n
\\n
\\n
\\nWhere did you come from AT shell?
\\n
\\nHow did you know where to conceal those guns?
\\n
\\nDid you know this game is everything I play for?
\\n
\\nLearn the rules, every night and day for?
\\n
\\nThen today I play my first combined-arms action
\\n
\\nNow you\'re firing next to me, giving it to me
\\n
\\n
\\n
\\nMy armoured fighting vehicles
\\n
\\nHave nowhere to run on this hex-y thing
\\n
\\nMy armoured fighting vehicles\\u2019
\\n
\\nPRCs long for their next of kin
\\n
\\n
\\n
\\nOh! Curse you, you hex-y thing
\\n
\\nPoint blank fire from the hex you\'re in
\\n
\\nThere\'s no way you can miss my side armour, these flanks are thin
\\n
\\nOh! It\'s snake eyes, this hexing thing
\\n
\\n
\\n
\\nYesterday I mortar bombed those lonely people
\\n
\\nNow your rate of fire sprees serve it back to me
\\n
\\n
\\n
\\nMy armoured fighting vehicles
\\n
\\nAre all STUNNED or wrecks burning
\\n
\\nMy armoured fighting vehicles
\\n
\\nFace side down or exiting
\\n
\\n
\\n
\\nOh, pinch me
\\n
\\nStop retreating!
\\n
\\nForget about those VCs, greenhorn
\\nOh, I concede!
\\n
