RICHTHOFEN'S WAR MODULE VERSION HISTORY
updated 150422
RTWv3.0: Bill Thomson, Tim Burel
- Tim Burel and I embarked on playing a Campaign game of RTW using Vassal.
Two independent versions were found by different authors. No version history
was inherent in either. Each has capabilities that are lacking in the other;
both lack have many standard capabilities found in other WGA modules. As a
result, a new 3.0 version has been generated to facilitate play. Both earlier
version are large in size due to the significant use of scanned imaged and
what appears to be a scanned board in .GIF format, which limits edibility.
Credit goes to those who started the effort.
