Hi all,

Good morning!

Hi all,

Typically, VASSAL and other online tools keep track of the map and all the counters.  You still need to have any documentation like rules, scenario info, etc.

I know and understand... but having nice map laid down with all those counters on it is just a thing of beauty... don't you all think? [;)]

I tried with Silent War, but the IJN sprung their new ASW dog paw on the unsuspecting USN [:D] If the Steel Wolves game is anything like SIlent War then it's going to have a big map. Plus keeping all those counters organised in the correct cups is a pain. And the require remixing every few months, plus you'd be very, very annoyed if you accidentally put the counters back in the wrong cup [8|]

So having a Vassal module that does the sorting for you is a godsend [:)]

The 3rd Shock Army was once chewed to oblivion by a marauding feline. VGs NATO was the target. It was the same cat that pulled down the Christam tree.

What about pictures?

It has pictures but the are embedded into the text so tend to be rather small.

I've said it before and I'll say it again. Cats are bastards [:D]

I wouldn't even dream of setting up a boardgame with Small Child MkI fully operational. Especially as he found my wallet this morning and emptied it. At least that's what Mrs Dixie told me.

Vassal module, remember?

I do remember but I thought that Vassal was just a helper and that you need to have all stuff (maps and counters) just as originally intended / designed...

You have to have the game, yes, but the map and all the counters and markers are represented on screen, and you move them around there. Same with dice rolling.

Kristian, can you post some screenshoots (or perhaps these are available at official Vassal for Steel Wolves site)?

Morning troopers. Once again the smoke from all the fires is pretty thick here in Jacksonville.

Michael, are forest fires burning in Florida as well (I thought only Arizona and neighboring states are affected)?
