Using VASL/ASL maps to Play

[Cdnwolf]

I was thinking more for travelling and encounters then switching to a more detail scale.

btw Vassal is the main site for hundreds of old board games. I used the maps from the Ambush module for man to man combat.

That works, too. Might work very well, thinking about it, for pre-encounter stuff. "You see some vehicles about 500m away. They're not headed right at you. Evade/engage/wait?"

I used the ASL maps for larger, Last Battle-type engagements, or encounters taking place over large distances. For a closeup on a single hex or group of adjacent hexes, I switched to maps from the old SPI RPG/wargame Commando, or from other RPGs or wargames, or hand-drawn maps (the problem with that is that I'm definitely no artist).
