    Show VASSAL and VASL versions in .vsav or .vlog 3

    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...

    Updated Swedish Volunteers extension

    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?

    Deluxe-sized hexes and LOS tool

    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...

    VASL - Questions for/of spectators

    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.

    VASL trip flare counter

    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...
