Well...that sounds interesting...but, why is he asking on a forum, it's not like I can just go over to his house and get together for a game.

Yes he can, you must BELIEVE!

Or he could use Vassal

(Yeah, I was also surprised when I found out that something like that exists).

Huh...that looks like fun...

I've heard of some of this before but never looked into it.

...

Now I feel like playing board games.

But my computer is shit.

I don't think Vassal takes that much, does it?
Well, eh. Topic change.

I actually just tried it now, your right, actually fine.
I just have low expectations for what my laptop can do...

And yes, and, I won't contribute more to the conversation.
 
Also, now that I have vassal...what, games do I play? And, how do I play with other people with it?
 
So...anybody recommending a potential game I should play...or, how to use this Vassal thing? No?

Sorry, wasn't paying attention to thread, we just finished our last game. There was some talk of Talisman earlier on SV and we might be able to get a crowd together for that.

I think I have an account still there...I'll join, but depends on when exactly.

..And, how I can get this vassal to work in the first place.
...And if I can understand the game in the first place.

First you download it from here, then you download modules like the one I linked and open them with the program. From there you put your username in place of your real name and select "look for games online".

Vassal is a weird program, but it shouldn't be too problematic to use.

Talisman... Talisman might take you some time to read through the rules in order to understand how to play (The game itself is also quite long).

So, eh... Just know what you're getting into (sorry, but I don't know all that much about Vassal and Risk to be helpful :V and it's also really late...)
 
Talisman isn't that hard.
Just roll for movement, roll for events on the square you land, and you're good.
End goal is getting strong enough to get to the center.

That simple huh? Alright then, just need to read rules and I should be good.

Heard of it, mostly through Manpy Guys Doing Manly Things.

Now there's a board game that has me sore tempte to actually get around to installing Vassal.
 
Shadows Over Camelot has rulebooks here (plugin doesn't include the expansion). Betrayal at House on the Hill is here and includes rulebooks. Currently up for playing either, don't feel like Talisman right now though.
 
Has some issues, especially with zooming in and out to actually read the board. Found the missing rule books here (the module is third edition). There appears to be another module that was briefly up that I can't find easily going through archives.
