Welcome to World in Flames for VASSAL!

This has been a labor of love for what

I consider to be the best grand strategy
wargame. A few notes follow to explain
some things which may not be readily apparant.

1) When choosing sides check all the options

and choose the most correct one. The list is
long and has several variants. The sides
that you choose to play will limit which
Force Pools you can manipulate.

2) All counters in the counter pallette are

listed in chronological order beginning with
the oldest. With each Force Pool addition
you will need to go through the pallette
and move the counters to the Force Pools.

3) The counter pallette and Force Pools

will list different cost units based on
the cost of the unit as it is with any
expansions. i.e A 4-cost FTR will be
listed as a FTR-2 as per PiF. Make sure
you are using the correct cost based on
the game you are playing.

4) A Random Select marker has been included

to help with the hiding of units during
random selection. Players are, of course,
free to use any method they choose.

I hope you enjoy this humble effort.
