I'll be honest - J6A - 02-22-2020
I am completely overwhelmed by all the stuff that is available. All of the supplements I have and haven't played because I don't want to get counters and maps from a zillion different games or because they are way too big for my table are now available to me. Where do I start?

First advice is, do not to have every extension active at the same time. While it is possible, it uses a lot of memory.
Second, since we do not provide scenario support, still get the games. You just don't need to lay them out as often.
Start with games about a theater and time you like.

But...but...I like them all!
Is there an easy way to know which extensions to activate/deactivate for a particular scenario besides going to the module page and seeing what's needed?
And I own all the stuff I'll play, it's just mostly sitting on shelves waiting. For instance, the 1st thing I downloaded was Workers and Peasants. Some cool scenarios there, and they are all huge. Well, now I can set them up!

I'll create an automatic game-expansion relationship table tonight. Programmatically, the site "knows" what goes with what. Just need to write a bit of code to generate a human readable report. Good suggestion, Joshua.

Marvelous....
The only quibble (and a small formatting preference) is if you could make it a 4 column list, not just the one long----
everything would then be vissible in one screen.....subtly easier to use....
But, as is---100% functional and useful.

Do you mean the table of contents? or the actual game tables?

I think the only thing I would add would be a optional/unassigned list. This could catch things like the Marshal's Fist extension, when it is done, or re-emphisis things like the normalized Airborne leader extension.
