New to VASSAL after taking a break from PG for about a decade. Currently working through the rule changes but want to start engaging the community through VASSAL and online play.

Reading through post archives - seems that the Academy is dead but still playable - it recommends a mentor for the mentoring scenarios.

Anyone interested in working through them with me?

I must be missing an asset?  I did download the entire Uber base module and the Panzer Grenadier base game.  I'm surprised the charts aren't in either of those?

Thanks.]]>

My understanding of the process is that when you save a log file at the end of a session and then save the game that the log file would be directly linked with that particular session. If you started a new session you would need to save the log file and the game under a new name even though you are just continuing the game.

Here is an example of what I am talking about:
1. Start a session - start log file called 'XX_Game_XX_Scen_Turn_1'
2. Complete session - save log file - save game under name 'XX_Game_XX_Scen_Turn1'
3. Start new session - start log file called 'XX_Game_XX_Scen_Turns2_3'
4. Complete session - save log file -- save game as a new save file called 'XX_Game_XX_Scen_Turns2_3'

Does that example explain pretty well what I am talking about? 
I guess my question is if my understanding of the process is correct or would I be able to save the game under the same name after each session?

Example:
1. Start a session - start log file called 'XX_Game_XX_Scen_Turn1'
2. Complete session - save log file - save game under name 'XX_Game_XX_Scen'
3. Start a new session - start log file called 'XX_Game_XX_Scen_Turns2_3'
4. Complete session - save log file - save game under same name of 'XX_Game_XX_Scen']]>

In the conclusion for the scenario it states that the only fire support they had was 4.2 inch mortars. I looked at a 4.2 mortar piece and saw it had a fire strength of 10. I saw in one post on here regarding the log files a point about dropping the OBA counters on the target hex. I was wondering if it would be alright to use the 4.2 mortar piece as sort of a proxy OBA piece for that purpose.]]>

I don't know if I'm missing something in the process of creating/saving log files but it seems when I open a saved game file session the log file doesn't seem to load properly and I don't see any previous work done (i.e. turn track setup, unit deployments, etc.).

I really like the PG system and I like using Vassal, so I want to graduate from VASSAL Academy to get access to other PG games. So any help with getting the log file issue resolved would be appreciated.]]>

Now I get to the perplexing part. Most of you already have a fair sized PG library. Self-play gets one certified by playing 2 regular scenarios (not the Mentoring scenarios). Shared or solo play doesn't matter, just so long as the logfiles are submitted. Everything need to play one game (of your choosing) on Vassal is provided. It is probably the easiest path to certification, because you are doing what you would have done anyway (plus a logfile). Yet, of the 3 Academy pathways, it is the least chosen. That is where my befuddlement lies.]]>
