I seem to recall the scorched earth approach being applied when others tried publishing scenarios that made use of the pieces in GWAS waaay back in the early days. I don't think there would be a problem in a forum section for it if there is enough interest. I feel like there were separate forum posts back there somewhere with some of Jay's? Maybe? Publishing them like a vassal file would be a problem because that is the IP of APL. writing a scenario alone and not packaging any APL things like maps or counters would be fine I think. Even AARs would be OK. You could publish and be protected even from people taking scenarios from other games and re-writing them because of the DMCA. If there were a question of provenance of the information PG-HQ could simply delete the file.
