Occasional ASL scenario
Journal du Stratège was a French wargaming magazine published in the late 1980s/early 1990s by Didier Rouy. It lasted for over 70 issues. Its ASL content consisted of the occasional scenario, in French. These include some of the earliest third party scenarios published for ASL, most designed by Pierre Forget or Robin Reeve.
The physical quality cannot be said to be high.
Known scenarios are included here, but this is not necessarily a complete list:
| Issue | ASL Scenario or Campaign |
| #34 (Nov-Dec 1987) | L’Enlèvement de Mussolini. |
| #36 (Mar-Apr 1988) | La Libération de Paris 1: Romilly, Champaubert, Montmirail. |
| #36 (Mar-Apr 1988) | La Libération de Paris 1: Retrouvailles. |
| #39 (Nov-Dec 1988) | Eben-Emael. (airdrop) |
| #41-42 (Mar-May 1989) | Un Jour en Normandie. This scenario, which purports to represent attempts to close the Falaise Gap in August 1944, is actually a rare three player scenario, with players representing the Americans, British, and Germans. |
| #53-54 (Jan-Mar 1991) | Saint Nicolas sur la Ligne Mannerheim. |
| #55-56 (Apr-Jun 1991) | Resistance pres du Pripet. |

| #67-68 (Jan-Mar 1993) | Descente Perilleuse |
| #70 (Apr-Jun 1994) | Campagne SL & ASL 1944. This is an attempt at a campaign game of sorts representing an attack of a Soviet mechanized brigade against a German infantry regiment during the destruction of Army Group Center in July 1944. Not sure if this was actually playtested. |
