Righto, I've only been using it for a few days so far. It seems to work as it should, pretty much exactly how it'd work with the actual board game just without loads of counters to put away. There's nothing so far I'd say was a major problem, the only minor thing is that there wasn't a campaign included with it so I had to spend two minutes of my time setting it up Cheers for taking the time to make it

You're Welcome.

The omission was deliberate at the designers request (see T's post above).

I'm glad you like it. My main concerns were if all the IJN counters were visible and whether they jumped to the correct locations when menu or keyboard shortcuts are selected.

Actually we are fortunate that there is a Vassal module for IJN at all and I think you find the designers statement on the consimworld forums post #5884 quite interesting.

Shame your module couldn't make the game easier, I might not make my Feb tonnage target

Sorry but there's not much I can do about that I'm afraid....

It depends. You want the January 24, 1942 version or the May 6, 1942 version?

Shortcut keys? Maybe I should re-read the documentation properly

Showers and humid here... really unpleasant...

And the helicopters constantly flying overhead don't help either (they must be watching final preparations for arrival of Pope tomorrow)...
