Any interest in getting a PBEM of this going?

I'm ready to start a PBEM. I just haven't figured out the Vassal Mod. I can't even find the Column Markers yet. Any luck with the Vassal Mod?

Column markers are in the Infantry tab of each side's Pieces window. This module is pretty awful, it could use a ton of work--and I don't even know how the game is played.

I hadn't looked at the mod until now and there are a few issues I already see:

• none of the starting position markers are set-up on the board
• the "opaque cup" should already be populated with the city/town markers
• there's no player area/board to place your airgroups (open information) & initial city/town markers
• no area to place counters to simulate counter limits
• area for operation pack is buggy & you can't stack cards on top of each other

Bleh.

If I'm in, would that make 4 for PBEM?

I'm very eager to play the game, but I guess I won't be able to play IRL any time soon.

It would probably be best if I and KingPut were on the same team. ;)

I saw version 1.1 is up. I'm not sure if it's any better then 1.0. I'll be at WBC from July 30 - Aug 5. We could start in about 10 days.

I swear it seems like the guy who created the mod a) never played the game and b) never really tested the VASSAL mod.

I'll be back for good on August 5th. Let me know if the VASSAL mod is good enough to play, I'd be totally down for it. I'll also be restarting our GCACW campaign then, Kingput.

If it improves be prepared to kick some KingSchweigPut ass!

Dr.MabuseGarySax vs. KingSchweigPut sounds good. I have no preference for sides so I guess you can roll for sides.
