I dont think I can play, but I would be willing to send some money for Prize Support. I only play when asked these days, but still love the game.

This is probably the best place to make this announcement, since everyone who plays in Vassal Con will check this thread:

The SWM Vassal mod has been updated to include everything up to V-Set 24. The current version of the mod is now (surprisingly!) 24. These words should show up in gray font in the main chat window if you're using the new version: "- SWM Skirmish Game version 24".

Everyone who plays in Vassal Con should delete their old SWM Vassal mod file and download this new one.

Here's the link to the Vassal thread: http://www.bloomilk.com/Forums/default.aspx?g=posts&t=28753



This update also includes a minor ease-of-use upgrade:

In the past it has been tedious to find out what the name of a character is on the map. It used to be that you could r-click on a character and you would see its name in the popup menu, but when I revised the Vassal mod a few years ago I didn't have a way to keep that information.

Well, fret no longer! I've found a way to do it. Whenever you r-click on a character, its name will show up at the top of the popup window. It is attached to the "Identify" command (which still works the same way that it has in the past). This was a tedious process of going through each character, one by one, to add this information; it took forever, but I think it be helpful from now on.

Unfortunately, if you want to have this functionality then you'll need to delete your saved squads and rebuild them using version 24 of the Vassal mod.

Usually not. They do a "sealed event" that introduces the new pieces. I'd hate for them to break precedence now. But I guess it's whatever at this point.

It will not be legal for the championship.

It may be legal in one or more other events throughout the weekend.
