New PBeM online system seems to be drawing near..

Mister Nizz

Heaven


aka iWarsim





This is an intriguing newcomer that may or may not have stalled. It appears to have the same or similar functionality to the better-known Vassal.

From the developer:

HEAVEN is designed for playing wargames online. You can play the game alone or play with anyone connected on Internet.

Each wargame is provided as a separate module file. By loading modules, you can play any kind of wargame. For the current beta version, "Breakout: Normandy" is provided as your testing module file.

From version 1.0, you can create your own wargame from scanned images just by dragging and dropping them on the HEAVEN's map window. Once you drop them, you are ready to play.


I have just downloaded this and will attempt to make a module for it shortly, and will report back my success here. I like the drag and drop module building, but wonder about how easy it will be to make counters.
