I haven't been able to find very explanatory documentation for vassal. It is obvious from your response that I don't know anything about using universal attributes. I kind of get what you're saying but in a miniature game most pieces won't have unique values, they will all have the same stats and values for the most part.
I'm guessing that if a stat card (piece) and a miniature (piece) both have properties that are also universal attributes then I can make the changes to one or the other but they both will be affected. If so markers and text labels would be used to reflect the change visually on the board/miniature so the card wouldn't have to be referenced all the time? --- In [email protected], "Tim McCaron" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Why would it require twice as many pieces? > > > > If your stat card has universal attributes, but unique values for different > pieces, then you can have the card reference and display DP's and Markers > via text labels and layers to obtain the uniqueness > > > > _____ > > From: [email protected] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On > Behalf Of coyotesun2000 > Sent: Sunday, December 16, 2007 9:43 PM > To: [email protected] > Subject: [vassalengine] Generating Reports For Changes Made in Profile > Sheets > > > > I was wondering if anyone knows how to do this.
