Just updated to 3.7.9/6.6.8, this seems to be new (or I can't find the setting...)
The beginning of each line with a DR (or dr) starts with the roll number followed by a ~ or * EX:
*141~ IFT 3 3 ... Tycho Cower if MMC w/o LDR
Is there a way to turn that back off? I don't play with...
This extension adds a non-stacking landed/wreck glider counter to help prevent accidental selection and movement of a landed or wrecked glider.
the extension adds a "NS Gliders" Panel under Other->Air
The panel has 4 gliders in it. The top row contains the original counters with the added...
I’m getting tired of PBeM and would like some live VASL play over Discord. I can make most Saturdays from 6pm to 9 or 10pm depending if I work on Sundays. Any scenarios. Thanks. Dan
Hello everyone!
I'm in the process of preparing the VASLeague 2023. If you participated in the Ersatz VASLeague 2022 (and didn't ask me to remove you and didn't have too many forfeits), you will be automatically part of the VASLeague 2023. I will publish the list of participants soon.
If you...
If you're like me, you're playing PBEM games with several opponents, and each may be using different versions of VASSAL and VASL. To avoid incompatibility, here is a small Python (version 3) program to display the versions used in a .vsav or .vlog file so you can use the same versions. It is a...
The current version of the Swedish Volunteers extension has the old ski counters and no Ahkios so I added them. The counter colors should probably be changed to the official colors, but I'm not a good enough artist to do that.
What do I need to do to get this added to https://vasl.info?
A .vsav file with the hexsides where the elevation changes marked by dragable perimeter lines.
Ten .jpg files each with one level highlighted in purple.
A .vsav file with the hexsides where the elevation changes marked by dragable perimeter lines.
Six .jpg files each with one level highlighted in white.
A .vsav file with the hexsides where the elevation changes marked by dragable perimeter lines.
Four .jpg files each with one level highlighted in purple.
Hey All,
When I pick a regular board (#3 in the screenshot, tested with FB_NW as well) with the oversized hex option the LOS thread shows the wrong hexes and range. Range is consistently multiplied by 3, can't figure out a pattern with the hexes. I'm using VASSAL 3.4.7 and VASL 6.6.1. Anybody...
NOTE:
With the release of VASL v6.6.7 in November 2023, an auto-update fuction has been implemented into VASL, which will handle most of the things to update a VASL file from an older version automatically, which needed manual attention before v6.6.7.
Cheers go out for Doug Rimmer taking up...
I enjoy watching VASL games from time to time as a spectator for various reasons:
You can watch how other people tackle a scenario you have played in the past.
It might give you a first impression of a scenario you are interested in playing.
Sometimes there are very experienced players involved...
With Bruno and I binging on night scenarios, we had the opportunity to use trip flares in VASL. In one scenario, Bruno had enough trip flares in his OB that he assigned several hexes with greater than one trip flare. He assumed that the placement of the trip flare counter was like placing a...
Lesson 11: The final VASL 101 basic course lesson! This is a simple one. You've "mastered" all the basic aspects of VASL, from installing the engine and module, all the way to setting up a scenario. Now it's time to play! This lesson is easy. I show you how to set up and connect to the VASL...
Lesson 10: Now that your basic playing area is built out for the example scenario The Eastern Gate, it's time to start pulling counters to represent the order of battle show on the scenario card. In this lesson I show you how to use the newly integrated search function as well as how to navigate...
Lesson 09: We're close to being able to start playing our first scenario. Next I show you how to add the bare minimum required to play a scenario: turn track, turn markers, phase track, and north indicator. I also show you an example (Decision at Elst setup) of what you will be able to do in an...
Lesson 08: I go over how to use the LOS tool, how to set colors to indicate clear, hindered, or blocked LOS, how to turn on verbose mode to display additional LOS information, and the difference between normal LOS checks and Silent LOS checks.
Lesson 07: Navigating the menu. Sorry this lesson ran a little long, but I wanted to show new (and old) users how to navigate around the VASL board. How to use the map insert (especially for large map layouts, the button/counter bar and how to customize it (if you choose), the difference between...
Lesson 05a: Advanced overlays. This lesson is essentially a repeat of placing the overlays on The Eastern Gate scenario, but by using the more visually intuitive VASL overlay extension instead. I show you how to download, configure, and use the overlay extension.
Lesson 05: Placing overlays. We continue building on The Eastern Gate scenario example by learning how to download overlays from vasl.info, and place them correctly on the previously cropped boards from Lesson 04.
