Greetings Let's try and see if we can get some games scheduled. I propose the following format: [Day and timeframe in GMT] [Languages] [Method of communication] [Game format/size, faction] For example I'd like to play this weekend, so I'll post: [Friday 17th, 18:00-23:00 GMT] [English, German] [Discord] [75p Steamroller, Skorne] And if anyone is up for a game they'll answer with a quote. So, fire away. Edit: Here's a useful time (zone) conversion tool: www.thetimezoneconverter.com/

I would like to try out Vassal. [Friday 24th, 20:00-24:00 GMT][English][Skype][35p Steamroller, Cygnar] I can be flexible on the point size, of course. But like I said, I'm newish to Vassal. If there are other new vassal users, don't be shy, we can figure it out together. Or, if there's someone experienced with it who'd like to teach, that would be great as well. Edit: Cancel. I'm gonna head over to Discord to look for games when my schedule clears up. My professors just dropped a ton of work on me.

My converter is saying that 20:30 pacific, Friday is 03:30 GMT, Saturday. I'm actually in EST. The OP seemed to want us to post in GMT, though.

I attached a link to a time zone converter where you just need to enter time and your location on the left side and "GMT" on the right.
I mean, feel free to use any other time zone, but I just think having a common one makes this a bit easier.

A standard time zone is a good idea.

As an alternative to trying to figure out timezones and arrange games via forum, I'll quickly plug the Discord server.. you can use the client in a browser (though I've found it sometimes not so great if you don't use Chrome), or you can download a native app as well. Starting link is here: discord.gg/XgGmuh2 (I'll add it to the main Vassal post, there's also a link to the server in the module itself, on the Help menu). It's also good for voice communication during the game - better than Skype in my opinion, because observers can easily listen in as well.

Oh yes, I've forgotten about the Discord. It's approximately a billion times better than Skype.

I am interested in finding regular Friday night games, starting maybe between 6-7 GMT. If anyone is interested let me know. I am not super familiar with Vassal as I have only used it once to play a game with a buddy as a quick run through.
