We jump right in to a wonderful interview with Vincent Maresca. He has made great contributions to the world of Advanced Squad Leader. As the Author of "Fifty Shades of Black" and "Me Ne Frego: the Italians in ASL, he has written two of the best and most thorough articles ever found in Banzai. One discusses various SS options and the other Italian ones. Along with Carl Nogueira, he has worked extensively on the upcoming Spanish Civil War Module. We know you will enjoy this one. As well as the opening medley by Dennis Donovan and the Two Half Squad Singers.
This show is the only one for December so it is a bit long, but you can listen in parts.
