| | If you can get it "hacked out", I'd play. After this weekend I can get you all the stats. Probably the old fashion data entry method (no scanner availible[:(]). | |

| | You can probably hack one of the other vassal mods that already has hex-based maps. You probably don't even really need scans of the maps, as long as you have the right features in the right places. | |

| Chris,
Do you have a scanner? I have one, and I could try to scan some stuff at some point soon if you need it. You are right down the road too so I could help some probably.

Sweet, please let us know when it is done and of course convert him to the proper boards for posting[:p]. | |

I just won a complete set of these things on Ebay, and I'm itching to try them out online. [:)] | |

CG handed it off to some guy on the AH boards. But the guy FiretrUCKed it up and most people are unable to download his mod.
I'm hoping Chris will get this back on track.ΖD] | |

By thanksgiving will be fine. Then it will be time to add new units from the next set.
Thanks in advance,

| Consider me on the "waiting list" for this one as well! I've been looking around for one, and now I'm glad I didn't find the FiretrUCKed up one! (I gotta remember that little phrase!)
Whenever you get to it, Chris, is fine, and if you need some extra help, please let me know! | |

Or better yet, have the face-up text be the appropriate color for the status - brown, red or black! | |

That sounds good to me. map quality is realy not an issue for me. I just want to play. | |

| | So I guess you'll probably decimate me the first time we play then Fenris? It would be cool to be able to play online and save the two hour drive, we would play more often I'm sure. | |

| Actually, I've gotten in very few games of AAM; I've been pretty busy and most of my limited game time goes to DDM. So I'm not a very fearsome opponent. [:)]
I haven't followed the progress of this Vassal mod either, is it working now? Guess I need to go read that thread on the AH boards.
