Is it possible to have the pilot bag filterable by aircraft type rather than alphabetical? As it stands it can take quite a while to parse through available pilots.

thanks for this bro, nice job.

@ShellGhost101 You'll have to find it online and print it out, or perhaps find one online you can open in word and edit
ShellGhost101 Apr 21, 2021 @ 5:39pm 
I may be blind... but I can't find the "Player Log Sheet" mentioned and shown in the rulebook.

Second what breakdaddy said!

Also...any chance of Corsair Leader? :)
breakdaddy Sep 6, 2020 @ 10:27am 
Any word on Thunderbolt Apache Leader? Thanks!

Is there a way to get rid of the pink hue on the rule manual and other cards? I imported a pdf (from BGG) with the various aircraft and what they can carry. When it appeared on the table, the white parts were also pink. Thanks so much for making an incredible module - I love the Leader series!

@KarateSnoopy - Thanks for that tip! I haven't tried it, but I will!
KarateSnoopy Feb 14, 2020 @ 12:06pm 
btw, have you tried using "TTS Mod Backup" tool (https://www.nexusmods.com/tabletopsimulator/mods/263)?

You should be able to click on your mod, then select all the local images and right click and choose "Upload this asset and replace URL". That should get the job done real fast.

For the tool to see your mod before you upload it, just copy it the json in your "\My Games\Tabletop Simulator\Mods\Workshop" folder
KarateSnoopy Feb 14, 2020 @ 12:01pm 
Awesome, thanks
Cincardo  [author] Feb 14, 2020 @ 7:18am 
@KarateSnooopy I am in the process of making it so I can post that even without the scripting completed. When I start development it is with all of the image files local. I am uploading them to imgur and updating all the links in the mod. That takes some time with how many images there are.
KarateSnoopy Feb 14, 2020 @ 12:26am 
Can you release Thunderbolt Apache Leader even if its not scripted? It was mentioned in Dice Tower's recent top solo games vid so I'm interested to check it out
Belmag Aug 20, 2019 @ 12:32pm 
I'm pretty sure I had a copy of this (and Apache leader) back in the 90s (I think).Looking at BGG now, I definitely remember this: https://www.boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/6927/hornet-leader I'm trying to remember what could've possibly happened to it. :)
Cincardo  [author] Aug 18, 2019 @ 5:18pm 
@Rescue92 Thank you for supporting the creator of this game! I agree with you the digital saves time, but we won't get to keep these up if people stop paying for the official copies.
Rescue92 Aug 18, 2019 @ 2:19am 
Just buyed the original via DVG.com after i tryed this here... its awesome. Still coming back here, because you dont have to build it up, so digital saves you some time...
Cincardo  [author] Jul 20, 2019 @ 10:46am 
@Snakeyes Thank you! Unfortunately, at this time I do not own Corsair Leader to make a mod of that game. I had to take a break from mod development for a bit to actually focus on some RL stuff, but I still have Thunderbolt Apache Leader in the works. I could release it now and finish the scripting at a later date, but I was hoping to release it with all of the scripting completed. I also wanted to add the Hornet Leader items for the Coordinated Campaign that I mentioned in my previous reply.
Snakeyes Jul 20, 2019 @ 7:08am 
Nice one! Can you make Corsair Leader?
Cincardo  [author] Feb 6, 2019 @ 8:09pm 
I was thinking that when I do Thunderbolt Apache Leader that I will actually create a version that has both that and Hornet Leader in one. That way players can play the Coordinated Campaign variant that DVG posted.

Oh man Thunderbolt apache leader looks awesome. I do really hope you look into that one then!
Cincardo  [author] Feb 6, 2019 @ 6:37pm 
I have certainly thought about it. This was the first mod I had created. I would certainly change the table that I used and completely rewrite the scripting as well as I've learned more and there are better ways of doing things since I made this. I have actually been working on a mod for a different game for the last week or so. I was certainly taken aback by how many have been interested in this title. I have some other DVG titles as well that I could add such as Thunderebolt Apache Leader.
Koa-chan~♥ Feb 5, 2019 @ 12:21pm 
Do you have any plans to update this? Compared to your own mod for Phantom Leader a lot of the parts are a lot more blurry and low res.
Cuddles McDeath Feb 3, 2019 @ 4:12pm 
Thanks! And thanks for making this module for the game!
Cincardo  [author] Feb 3, 2019 @ 11:43am 
@Cuddles, no worries. Just put your mouse over the pilot card in question and press a number on the keyboard (1-6). That will switch the card between the levels. Be sure you take the "modified" card off of it first as they are stacked. You should be seeing the original pilot card at the newbie level after you separate them.
Cuddles McDeath Feb 3, 2019 @ 10:11am 
I'm new to TTS so please forgive this newbie question. In this module, I prefer to use the original pilot cards as I like to see the picture of each plane. However, I can't figure out how to change the experience level of the pilot from the default Newbie. The index card on pilots indicate that we can change the state to accomplish this, but I don't see a state option when I right-click on a card.
What could I be doing wrong?
T_T Jan 26, 2019 @ 7:45am 
Thank you for your time and effort into creating this!!! :interceptor:
Cincardo  [author] Mar 13, 2018 @ 10:28pm 
Thanks for the compliment, I am very glad that people are enjoying this! :) Unfortunately, that table is the one I built-in to the mod, its not setup to allow you to swap out to other tables. I had planned to use a different table if I went back in to update things.
MirabelleBenou Mar 12, 2018 @ 12:44pm 
Aaahhh !! Thanks ! :) Really nice job for this mod. I own the offical vassal module and prefer your TTS release. Juste a little question, do you know how I can change the table for a new one without messing everything ? (Still new to TTS).
Cincardo  [author] Mar 11, 2018 @ 5:52pm 
The classic pilot cards are underneath the custom cards. Just pull the top card off after you pull the pilot out of the bag. :)
MirabelleBenou Mar 11, 2018 @ 1:04am 
Hello ! I can't find the classic pilots cards (The one with the plane on it). In the bag, I can only find the new looking one. Can you help ? And thanks for this great work :-)
lioga69 Mar 10, 2018 @ 12:57am 
Thx for your quick answer and thx again for your quality job.
Cincardo  [author] Mar 7, 2018 @ 9:01pm 
@lioga69 - Thanks! :) Unfortunately, I did not get the chance to finish the additional scripting options that I would have liked to when I first published this. That was one of the items that was on my list to complete. If/when I get the availbility again at some point in the future I wanted to redo the scripting which would be much simpler with the new features added to TTS since I published this.
lioga69 Mar 7, 2018 @ 7:35am 
Thx for the job first !!
:steamhappy:Question : is any way to manage automaticly the date of the pilot to choose regarding the date of the mission seleceted? like the automatic selection you did with target card regarding mission choosen.
Cincardo  [author] Feb 28, 2018 @ 7:18pm 
@Rescue92 Thanks, glad you enjoyed it and are going to support the publisher!
Rescue92 Feb 28, 2018 @ 3:55am 
10 of 10. Going to buy it via dvg.com soon!
N3urospeed Dec 25, 2017 @ 1:53pm 
Awesome ! Thank you :steamhappy:
Cincardo  [author] Jul 4, 2017 @ 2:25pm 
Unfortunately, I hadn't had the opportunity to complete the scripting due to personal matters. However, rather than make everyone wait. I have uploaded the non-scripted version today. Happy 4th of July! Enjoy! :)
Elesium Jul 2, 2017 @ 4:38am 
Any further update on phantom leader? Really enjoyed Hornet Leader however once you 'work it out' you can mitigate most of the lethality of the AAA and enemy jets. Phantom is much harder, less High altitude bombs and stand off weapons.
Cincardo  [author] Jun 9, 2017 @ 9:53am 
Just wanted to send an update on Phantom Leader, had some life events that impacted my time to work on this, this week. It will probably be delayed to next week as I don't think I will be able to complete it before the weekend is over with my availability. I want to get it posted as soon as I can though. :) Happy gaming!
MooseRoom Jun 4, 2017 @ 10:03am 
AWESOME
Cincardo  [author] Jun 3, 2017 @ 3:52pm 
Just another update for everyone. I wanted to announce that development of the Phantom Leader Deluxe Edition is in the works. I have all of the components completed. I am working on sizing, placement/organization, and scripting yet. I am hoping that I will have it uploaded sometime this coming week.
Cincardo  [author] Jun 2, 2017 @ 2:28am 
Sorry for the wait everyone, but I have finally added scripting to the game. Multiple options are available. Please read the notecards for descriptions on how they work. If you run into any issues, please let me know. :steamhappy:
baldrick May 29, 2017 @ 4:30am 
@kxx355. Re. "how to play game properly", there is no clear answer but if I could summarise it would be 1) identify the path of least resistance, 2) prepare for the unexpected, and 3) be willing to take calculated risks. The planning phase of any mission is key. Figure out what you need to do destroy the target and the safest way to do it but always consider the unexpected. Sometimes a weapon you bring along that isn't needed for the actual mission can save your ass on the way to the target or on the way home. Also, sometimes it's better to "Suppress" an enemy unit rather than take it out. You don't need to kill absolutely everything. Keep focused on the mission objective.
Brambo May 20, 2017 @ 10:05am 
Thanks for your work, its an excellent game. Hope others in the series pop up some time.
RCFixer1140 May 14, 2017 @ 8:13am 
The quality is fine, although, if youre able to include it with better quality I wouldnt say no to that even if itll take 5 or 6 secs to initially load the game
RCFixer1140 May 13, 2017 @ 11:54am 
Thanks, Ill check them later
Cincardo  [author] May 13, 2017 @ 11:51am 
The latest update has the manual as another object in the mod now. I apologize if some of the images aren't very clear. I didn't want the load time to take too long, so they are web-optimized rather than higher quality. If it becomes a problem I can look at uploading a better quality.
Cincardo  [author] May 13, 2017 @ 11:27am 
Sorry to find out they removed that. :( I am working on a solution for you guys and should have a new version uploaded shortly.
MooseRoom May 13, 2017 @ 10:38am 
It appears to have been removed from the product page. Not sure why that happened (just went out of stock? DVG noticed unusal traffic and wants to stop people from playing it?) In general DVG is a bit ridiculous with their IP control. They sell VASSAL modules for...$30, the price of a normal board game. I would say they price their games roughly 40-60% higher than most publishers, and there may be nothing to do about it. I strongly recommend supporting their products, but I think it is a bit unreasonable to expect people to pay $90 to buy without even trying the game. As the usual piracy discussion goes, 99% of the people who would play your game free on TTS would never buy it, and probably 10% or more will now buy it when they otherwise wouldn't have.
RCFixer1140 May 13, 2017 @ 6:30am 
I cant seem to find the rulebook on the "new" dvg homepage. Do you have another link?
Cincardo  [author] May 12, 2017 @ 1:52pm 
@kxx355 - This game can be a bit tough for some people to learn. I would highly recommend that you check out some of the youtube videos that people have posted. Rather than list each of them individually. Here is a link to the video page for the board game on BoardGameGeek. It has links to some of the how-to or let's play videos on youtube that might help you. There are a number of new player threads in the forums on boardgamegeek that might provide some help as well.
