I am soon to be deploying to Iraq and am going to take a laptop for SASL play through VASL. Can anyone give me some pointers about d/loading and setting up VASL along with SALSA II. Thanks for any help. I might add that sometimes the obvious doesn't seem to obvious to me.

Not sure what help you need. Have you tried installing VASL yet? If not, go to http://www.vassalengine.org/ first to download the engine. Then go to http://www.vasl.org/download.htm to get the actual VASL stuff (VASL module, boards, overlays, etc.). Let us know if you have any trouble.

VASL is a terrific utility for SASL, and is the main way I play it, thus not having to leave boards setup. It works very well. I have used SALSA in the past and found it to be a good utility, but haven't used the latest version (SALSA II) since most of my play is on a Mac.

You don't need VASSAL. Go straight to VASL unless you want to play other games.

Get the latest java from vassalengine.org

Then get vassal downloaded and installed

Then get VASL.

If you follow this in order you should be all set. When Vassal prompts you to choose a directory for installation, be SURE to put it where you want it. As I recall, it tried to setup itself in my windows folder......

vassal automatically comes with vasl when you install vasl.
It does indeed, but I've had fewer glitches installing VASSAL separately first.
