Nor'easter XXI: March 30-April 2, 2017
The ASL Nor'easter is New England's regional ASL championships. It is held annually near Boston, MA. It is a yearly get-together of people in the New England area that play Advanced Squad Leader (ASL). The Nor'easter is hosted and directed by the boys from The Bunker and the Yankee ASL Group
Visitors are very welcome, and you'll probably be able to play a game if you want to learn. Have a look at the archived web sites for previous Nor'easters to see what the event is like.
The Nor'easter will start at 10:00am on Thursday and go until 6pm on Sunday, with 24-hour access to the gaming rooms. The Thursday game play is open gaming, with the main and mini-tournaments, with the exception of the Big MoFo, the large scenario "Mini" tournament beginning on Friday. The MoFo, due to the scenario size, kicks off on Thursday.
All players from beginners to experts are encouraged to play, and the emphasis is on having fun. All attendees are automatically entered into a random drawing for fabulous door prizes.

Two special events are available at this year's convention: Starter Kit for beginners and MASL, a double-blind WWII campaign game that uses ASL to resolve individual battles.
