WAR SPI 1977 V143.vmod created by Bill C Fixed an issue with starting the game and defaulting to the German side. I also took the opportunity to remove a heap of unused images.

Updating this module had been a challenge in the past as I had used the inbuilt piece construction tools (creating units from scratch) rather than using scans of the units. Everytime I made changes to the module I would have to spend ages fixing random breakages with the units. With 1.42 I have added scanned units.
Apologies for the Germans looking a bit washed out - the low res scans of the germans (grey does not scan well at low res) meant that I had to touch up the units, which diminishes the sharpness of the image. If this is a problem, and you prefer cleaner and brighter unit images, then 1.3 is for you!

There is a "Read me" in the Help menu. It will help you understand some of the game functions.
There's also a third variant module of this game from Decision Games, https://shop.decisiongames.com/SearchResults.asp?searching=Y&sort=9&cat=106&show=60&page=1
BC: This link references the Decision Games remake of Wacht am Rhein. The game is very different from the original, so their module will be different.
The modules, here, cover the first edition game from SPI.
