Vassal on Win10

**Compass Rose** · 03-03-2021, 02:51 AM,

I am fairly new to Win10 and was wondering if any of you Win10 users are also using Vassal?

Since Vassal uses Java, it is my understanding that is a huge security threat.

If you are using Vassal, what are you doing so you can use it safely?

Thanks

Hi Chad,

I've been using Vassal for quite some time(8 years?) and never had a security issue. Been running Windows 10 for at least 3 years. To the best of my knowledge, no one I play (at least 50 opponents) have ever had an issue. Fun to play boardgames live! (or PBEM)

Hey Kevin!

Not sure if I was more excited to see your answer or to see that it was actually you on-line!

Thanks for the answer and super glad to see you that you still monitor the Blitz.

It has been a really long time!

I hope all is well for you and the family.

My email hasn't changed.

Drop me a line as I'd love to hear what you have been up to and what you are playing these days!

Take Care!

Chad
