Best mod ever created for a John Tiller game - 3/19/2019 3:04:25 AM

Better (imo) than any modern SB game put out by Tiller yet - or real close. This is no "graphics" mod. The OOB is huge and everything (pretty much) has been updated, including counters, pix, etc. to Cold War period.

I hope you're still out there somewhere IronX. You are indeed "the man."

And now for something really stupid: I mistakenly trashed the exe's and cannot find the elusive website in my History. I do have a working copy of the full game if any owners of Vietnam would know how to compress the whole thing. Really a gem to be shared with others.

Definitely interested in checking out the mod. I don't have SB: Vietnam, but I might have to pick it up to try this out.

If someone had Vietnam, they'd have to copy all my files over the install and it should technically work. Two games for the price of one.

Sorry the earliest I can upload them to Dropbox or something is tomorrow night. Dropbox is free for a small file size right?


Update:
I think everything you need for ROE, and AIW is here. Plus a couple art mods Ive picked up for SB games.

I figured someone might have it. Was so frustrated I deleted it. It is a total makeover, but admittedly have only scratched the surface, so can't comment on any bugs.

Thanks for sharing!

Do you know if these work with the latest JTS updates?

Speaking of John Tiller Games...

Can anyone tell me why Landru was on the front of the War of 1812?

Personally, I'm not buying any "historical politician" references... my brand spanking new conspiracy theory ((TM) patent pending) says we all really know it's because it is the will of Landru that we come to the game for "Festival!" (Peace and Tranquility to you Brother.)

P.S. Free Moon Landing Conspiracy Version 2 available on request. You only pay $99.95 Shipping and handling!!! (see preview shot below!!)
