Posted: Wed Mar 11, 2026 4:40 am
now, that one has Command Levels at their fingertips,
Weapon Effectiveness Tables on their laps,
Thread Zones on their mind
...
and everything just seems to be ranges, more ranges and still more ranges to think of ...
... i gave myself a present: Rangefinder!
DISCLAIMER: this is just a proof of concept for something that's missing from the game, if it doesn't do your laundry or helps with your taxes - not my fault. 
... yeah, counting hexes is so 70s, don't you agree?
the 3-6-9.png image is set to transparent and if you're lucky to have an image-viewer application that supports transparency than try out this spanking new & shiny tool i thought of, yay!
