VASSAL

[sunnyside]

I'd mentioned this in another thread. But figured I'd pop it out here. For the record VASSAL is used for a lot of games. For example if you've been itching to play some Axis and Allies.

Hmmmmm. There is also VASSAL. With that you could play each other and even people online. It's free. You can download it through

Here's the old guide for setting up maps and stuff.

I don't remember the details but it isn't to hard. You could e-mail the vassal file with the movable pieces back and forth and take screensots to post here (you guys know about ctrl+prist screen right?)

I'd suggest photobucket for hosting the pics. It's something that's fun to use anyway as you can access pics you upload there from the web or your desktop from anywhere. So when I need to bust out a little:


It's right there.

For dice rolling there's a thing that will log rolls online for you.

You can register at

and then go to

and join log 56

What is VASSAL?

[sunnyside]

It's something people use to play tabetop 40K with each other online. Note that it connects to a central server so you don't have to plan out a game. Just log on and find someone to play with. Here I'll post a screen shot (the little tags on some models mean they've moved this turn alread).

Interesting.

Interesting.

Back when I had more time I played a few games that way. Note that you can save a game and come back to it later. I had to do that a couple times when someone would come up for me or the other guy. Actually got to finish some of them though.

that does look interesting...

Cool. I might give that a whirl in a couple of days.
