Thank you!

In the WITE-2 forum, I discuss how if you have 8Gb of VRAM or better, you can build AI expert which can help you with game questions and not remembering details:

Just use a small vision model on your PC.

I played West Wall as the Allies about 4 weeks ago. Lot's of fun. The CR is not as good as WITE-2, but good enough.

You could either write a custom APP or an MCP server with scroll and screen shot tools. Such that you just launch it, and it makes one combined table.

Yes, there are PC control AIs which you could tell how to do this, but I would not give an AI unrestricted access to my PC. By using MCP, you have ...

How can I convert the CR's from WitW to CSV/Excel for the AI to look at? I asked in forum but no answer.


CoPilot was down; I did this with QWEN3-MAX, but I am sure QWEN3-VL 8B locally would be enough, but I was too busy to set it up.

Prompt: Please turn this table into a CSV. Thank you ...

Software development cost is rapidly decreasing with AI. Which means that even niche demands are going to be satisfied.



Are you in development?

I am retired software engineer. I do plan to do some code development with QWEN3-Coder 30B or QWEN3-NEXT-Coder 80B. But I had mainly intended to ...

Take screen shot, and use a vision model.

Again I am not using AI to play the game for me, or tell me what do here. Instead I am using it as hyper fast researcher and aggregator at scale. I could do so myself, but I don't have enough years left to spend 2-3 days on a turn. On the other hand, the AI produces what I would have learned in 2-3 ...

Here is an example of the top of sources which I am holding for WITE-2 in 4 workspaces, but I mainly use. The manuals. But sometimes ask a question of YouTube transcripts yields a better result. Like "What is the best way to pocket, surround, encircle enemy troops or forces?". More likely to have ...

Very interesting and impressive.

Assuming I could get game/scenario/turn/unit recommendations, I doubt I would.[/b]

The AI cannot do much without CSV from CR, as I said, loaded GC as Axis, turn 1 asked AI where to attack AI just gave advice, take Minsk. I will test for turn 2 when I ...

Good project. There is a lot of arcane knowledge buried in the forum .


Your links are really good, but I only started buying Gary's games when WITE-2 came out, but I back track to quite a few older titles like: WITW, WITP-AE, EDBTR ... but not WITE-1.

RAG (making libraries of documents and ...

Very interesting and impressive.

Assuming I could get game/scenario/turn/unit recommendations, I doubt I would.

There was one MIT study which showed that even 6 month AI outsourcing of your writing resulted in a cognitive decline. SO, THOSE WHO SAY USE AI AS MULTIPLIER OF YOUR OWN SKILLS AND TO ...

This is why you use open source local everything: LLM + VDB + RAG ...

You get all that with one download (see thread or two if you want finer control).

I highly recommend GPT-OSS 20B; smaller AI can be used too down to 3-8B.

System Prompt looks like this:

The threads I pulled were in the WITW forum; nothing in this. Scraping a thread is a single view.

Then I wonder how those views get that high that quick. :?


Congratulations, Herr Wiedrock! Your analytics of dice rolls are being scraped by OpenAI and the new DOW (Department of War) for the ...

The threads I pulled were in the WITW forum; nothing in this. Scraping a thread is a single view.

I looked at one or two AARs here, but they were heavily graphical. My expert only works with text, because the database only handles text.

Video are first turned into text, and the video itself is ...

Yes, I do have professional grade AI hardware (expensive), but you could really build a reasonable implementation on an 8-12GB GPU for games such as WITW/WITE-2. I got like 10 things running right now and 2 display including WITE-2, and my VRAM (WIN10) is less than 2GB in use. Also, the latest AI ...

Here is what can be done with AnythingLLM (which is an application built by Mintplex) which uses local or commercial vector databases, and local or commercial AI (LLMs). I am doing all local.

Vector database <- PDFs or any text documents.

Vector database <- WiKis (like Paradox sites).

Vector ...

Does it understand the game mechanics well enough to provide good advice? (I have to show CoPilot some screen shots and see what it says.)

I have used models like QWEN3-VL, and they certainly see well enough. I don't know if I really want AI playing for me. I decided to draw the line with AI ...

Is Gary actually involved in this project or just his name for marketing purposes?

Also, why not just have remade WITP-AE as "remakes" carry very low risk in the entertainment industry and the Pacific, although times have changed, is becoming an area general public focus in The West where most of ...
