GENESIS '48 2nd Edition aims to polish every rough edge of its predecessor, while adding value in the form of new counters and situations.
Rules such as the "Molotov Tank Hunting Hero" and others have been streamlined. Squad types have been reduced appropriately and redundancy in rules addressing their use edited down. Scenarios continue to use mostly non-desert, daytime situations and are moderate to small in size and play on geomorphic boards. An all new Kibbutz geo board is provided and a separate Jerusalem '48 historical map-based module with a fully remastered map that utilizes larger hexes than its predecessor. All you'll need to own is your ASLRB and a collection of marker counters. Everything you need in terms of color, die-cut counters is provided in Genesis '48 2nd Edition!
Genesis 48 is an expansion to the Advanced Squad Leader game system.

From the 1st edition game sleeve:
Genesis 48 tells the story of a war unlike any before. Kibbutzniks defending their homes, fighting alongside their wives. Homemade armored cars trundling into battle. Davidka mortar shells exploding with terrifying shrapnel - due to the soft metal used in the underground shops - with unexpectedly deadly results. The 1948 siege of Jerusalem. Numerous, well-equipped but poorly organized Arab armies.
It's all here in Genesis 48 in a well-researched and extensive module presentation. Three sheets of color die-cut counters include 20 troop-types ranging from elite Israeli Palmach soldiers to Moslem Brotherhood conscripts. Israeli Molotov Tank Hunting Heroes. You also receive numerous new vehicles, including 3 types of Israeli Homemade armored cars, Davidka and Parosh mortars, the Marmon Herrington IV, Jewish 'Sandwich Car' APC, and a variety of half-tracks up-armed with small turrets and a variety of armaments.
(Ownership of ASL, Beyond Valor, Hollow Legions, and Croix de Guerre is necessary to play this game).
