		VASSAL (Module 3.1)

Playing On Line

Presentation
VASSAL is a game engine that Rodney Kinney created initially for Advanced Squad Leader (or Virtual Advanced Squad Leader, VASL), hence the name of the engine which fits in beautifully for our medieval-time skirmish game. Vassal includes all the features of a PBEM engine like CyberBoard. In addition, it lets you play on line in real time, which is a definite plus for gameplay. Martin Moser (from Germany) created a high quality Cry Havoc module back in 2004 (version 1). It didn't cover all the available extensions due to the extensive work required to reformat each map. In the meantime, another community player (Scorion) worked on a version 2 and included most of the material available at that time. This version was not very well polished and lacked a lot of English translations, which is why I banned it from this section of Cry Havoc Fan. In 2009 col_klink, another player, created another module which combined the quality of the version 1 and the exhaustiveness of the version 2. I just spent the last 2 months helping him polishing and refining his module to move from Good to Great (hopefully!). New features include: > Charge & counter-charge management, > Missile fire management (arrows in the quiver will decrement automatically each time you fire), > Addition of sounds for movement, fire and combat: Check it!
