The 2 Half-Squads: Advanced Squad Leader Podcast

Clink and Drink Boys and Girls! (as long as you are of age)

Clink and drink in the New Year kids! Best wishes for 2023 to all of us! We welcome Mike Ryzy back to the broadcast foxhole for an interesting discussion of Battlefield Integrity and the Field Promotion rules. We hope you will indulge us as we banter a bit longer today, and also cover some of the most amazing WWII/War related items that appeared In The News in 2022. And we think you might enjoy the tour of Jeff's game/music room.

But first, let's listen to Surrender!

Surrender!

Concept and Lyrics: Dennis Donovan

Performed by: The 2 Half-Squad Singers

Took an MC, a 3MC, and I rolled a ‘2’
A Russian half-squad, also broken

and they’re inexperienced.

Plus 4 DRMs on to their Heat of Battle roll:

I rolled box cars, now a white flag’s being flown

Chorus

It’s 16 alright?, okay, alright

That just seems a little weird
Surrender, surrender, they

Throw in the towel today, ay, ay, ay

F.5 says in the Desert, refusal it is NA
Unlike the late war, Allies vs. the Japs in the Philippines
No, fanatics, Gurkhas, commissars, or Partisans,
Will surrender via the Rout Phase Method A20.21

Chorus

Surrender at night? In CC? That’s right

It just seems a little weird
Surrender, surrender

You’re disrupted anyway, ay, ay, ay

Whatever happened to all my broken half-squads over there?
Thought they rallied in the building, but they all disappeared
Oh yeah, that’s right, they got captured ‘cuz they couldn’t rout
Got surrounded, they all gave up, put that ol’ white flag out

Chorus

They were next to, your K.E.U.s,

It was, just as I feared
Surrendered, surrendered

Because they couldn’t rout away, ay, ay, ay
