Lock 'n Load: Battle Pack Alpha

Description

From the publisher: Everyone has been asking for more scenarios, so we decided to do something about it. Battle Pack Alpha is that something. The first scenario pack for Lock 'n Load. Twelve scenarios designed to increase the replayability of your Lock "n Load games. Included are missions in the jungles of Vietnam, the streets of Arnhem, and the small, Belgian village of Foy. There are Jewish Partisans defending their home, German panzers attacking a Russian bridgehead, and North Vietnamese regulars storming an American-held hill. Includes twelve new scenarios on cardstock, just like those included in all other Lock 'n Load games. Scenarios for Forgotten Heroes, Band of Heroes, Swift and Bold, and Not One Step Back. 12 scenarios in all (see below for details), ten designed by Dale Holmstrom (scenario designer for NOSB and Swift and Bold), two by Mark H. Walker, the original Band of Heroes game designer. Of Mines and Men: While a platoon of Marines supported by Am tracks are patrolling a mine-infested area, they are ambushed by the Viet Cong.
