Okay there seems to be the desire to learn Vassal and the desire to learn 40k. Yes there's the BFG people, but I'm not worrying about that at the moment. So who knows 40k but wants to apply it to Vassal, and who wants to learn from the ground up?

Keep it simple, I just want to know what we're dealing with here. Just a "I know 40k but not Vassal" or "I'm clueless" will suffice.

[Draco Ny'ade]

I know 40k but not Vassal

[Armoured Priest]

I know 40k but not Vassal. Can build army, don't know how to play over vassal.

[JC 042]

I know 40k, not vassal. But Ill research it then practice with it for a while then come to you with questions if I have any.

[Grimaldus]

I'm clueless

[Domine Nox]

If you don't know Vassal I'm willing to nip that in the bud. I'm creating little step by step helpful things, but one of the best ways to learn it is to get with me and I can walk you through it over Xbox Live, or the TS3 server if you prefer/don't have Xbox Live. For Totally Clueless people I will also be trying to set up a step by step thing that demonstrates both Vassal and Warhammer. Kind of like what they do in GW stores.

I know all the basics now from trial and error, but i doubt theres an AI option, so would you mind giving me a practice game to get used to it? 1500 pts, if your not busy.

Thursday good for you JC? I'm free from 1pm EST onwards.

[JC 042]

Im free on thursday at 7PM GMT, which I think is 2PM for you? 
ah, forgot to mention, I do not yet have Teamspeak but am planning on getting it after checking it through at the end of this week, is it all right if we were to communicate normaly? I think Vassal has a discussion area doesnt it?

[Domine Nox]

Vassal allows communication via typing. Which works, but sometimes voice is so much more convenient. Team Speak is free btw.

[JC 042]

I'd rather stick to typing for now. dont worry I will get it by the end of the week though. So we on for a match on thursday 7PM (2PM)?

[Domine Nox]

I don't know that it would really be called a 'match' but yeah. That should work.

[Zero]

I'd like to give it a go Nox. I'll also have to type though.

[CruciasNZ]

You can join Teamspeak without a mic, it will let Nox talk to you instead of having to type himself

[JC 042]

I'll give you the training session Zero, im free today from 4pm to 12pm GMT 0, is this time alright?

Thanks for the offer! That should work I think.

[JC 042]

PM me around that time when your ready.

I knew 40k 20 years ago when I was 10, now I don't. So put me in the clueless pile.

Also just a quick one, would Vassal work cross systems? eg: Microsfot to Mac or visa versa?

Yeah it should, the clients load the same modules.

[Crimson Marine]

Haven't played 40k since the 3rd ed so I have no idea how clueless I will be, but Ive downloaded Vassal and the module and am keen to learn.
