Just to visualize what we are talking about:
This is a pre-made setup how I do them:
View attachment 14836
Features:
- Picture (which might be a cause of trouble if the web-source is no longer available).
- VC & SSR (which will not show on those pre-made setups at vasl.info for copyright reasons).
- Special Rules needed for this scenario
- ROAR Rating at the time of the creation of the VASL file. Beneath VASL version with which this file was created and creation date.
- VP and CVP counters (if required by scenario), similar for PF, THH Tallies
- Sample AFV used in scenario. Before play, these are marked with CTRL-I to display Ammo and other backside information.
- Terrain alterations already done (snow, orchards out of season etc.)
- Manual terrain enhancements by draggable overlays (a special SSR Paved Road in this case)
- Setup and Entry Areas
- Setup instructions, SAN/ELR
Of such a VASL file, much can be used as a template. For example, the position of the units offboard can be reused for any scenario with a comparable playing area with only minor adaptations. VC/SSR can be copied/pasted from a PDF into the HTML template, etc.
There is also a tool created by Pacman Ghost that can ease some of the stuff I do manually for my setups described in this
thread, which will soon (or does already) integrate ROAR and/or ASL Scenario Archive information. It can also automatically add vehicle notes for vehicles selected.
