A central feature is the full-sized 22-by-32-inch historical map of Kakazu Ridge, supporting the dedicated Okinawa scenario material. The issue also includes two countersheets and necessary rulebook pages containing Chapter Z additions for the Kakazu Ridge special rules.

Scenario titles span a wide range of settings and subjects, including The Capture of Balta, Nocturnal Attrition, Lovat First Sight, Panzer Graveyard, The Slaughterhouse, Men of the Mountains, and Siam Sambal. With its combination of new scenarios and supporting components, ASL: Journal – Issue Two is a substantial magazine-format addition for two-player ASL sessions.
