Did you sign any sort of confidentiality agreement with AP? What's to stop you from publishing your scenarios as a free unofficial expansion? If you think Mike might sit on it indefinitely... 
That could be burning some bridges. OTOH, there are non-MMP companies who publish scenarios for ASL. I'm sure they pay MMP a royalty. You might want to suggest that to Dr. B. You form "Jay is Great Publishing Company", put out your own supplements, and give him his pound of flesh, and everyone is happy.
Who pays MMP a royalty for publishing unofficial scenarios? Are they selling them?
My suggestion was for him to release them for free rather than let his hard work mold on the shelf forever.
It's Jay's business anyways, just throwing that out there since I read his remarks as coming from a point of great frustration.
Just a guess that people like Critical Hit have to pay MMP something for the use of the ASL name.
If not, MMP needs better lawyers.
That 's why Critical Hit doesn't label any of their products ASL. It was established in the courts in Monarch Avalon vs Critical Hit last century that Critical Hit could continue to publish ASL material as long as it is labeled either Squads and Leaders or ASLComp. Not sure if the other publishers which say "for ASL" pay a stipend to either MMP or Hasbro. The guys at MMP have got much more important things to spend money on than litigation.
