got it. I will likely send my D-Day Thursday, in two increments: airborne and bombardments first, then the landings/interdictions and assaults. I know ACTS is the official record but I personally really rely on Vassal: I plan to send you (Nels) a log file and a vsav file at each step. Once in a while (for example a failed bombardment) a separate log file wouldn't be useful but I'll document that in ACTS when it happens. |
