happy to help you out...busy frigging week so probably be Sat/Sun --pick an hour...anytime works...
But, if you have installed the Java SDK
If you have VASSAL 3.2.17 loaded, with an Icon on the desktop and an ability to open the Module Library Panel
Then you are ready....
Go to the VASSAL Academy Data site and down load the files there...
The write ups to understand everything (you've probably read them 1000 times in anticipation already, right???)
Just down load everything in the "VASSAL MODULE MENTORING FILES"
Then with the VASSAL Module Library File command---Think you want to Import the Uber Base Module 2.5 (you just downloaded it...)
Then after that module is loaded into the VASSAL Module Library list---highlight it and "Add Extension" ---point to the Mentor and Minefields...
they load....
Double click on the Uber Module to open it....
you should see a Tiger and some German Infantry...you are ready to start a game 
drop a note---try it ---the learning is worth the pain....
Well, I downloaded 3.2.17 (windows.exe) off of the VASSAL archive, but I don’t see a desktop icon. I can look again. It’s gotta be in downloads though. In fact, I imported several 3.2.17 downloads from the iPad when I synced Google Accounts. But since Java doesn’t like Google, I’m in process of loading Firefox. I have an unforeseen problem. Like many of us, I crane my neck to look at a PC screen. You and Peter know that I’ve had three neck surgeries, the last being C1-C6, very serious. I wear a soft collar full time now. In the last 24 hours I seem to have misplaced the collar. So I can only stay.on thee PC a short time before I have to take a break.
It appears, though, that Java is not on the PC. I’m going w Firefox now to see if I can get it loaded. For this reason, I want to push the meeting back to Sunday.
So you, Uberkommder Johnson, are my new mentor?
Too easy just to answer you here. Is 6-7pm good on Sunday or does fall right wi dinner? Anytime is good. I’ve fallen into a more humanoid normative schedule 6am-10pm, although I may go back to the all night thing. It’s designed to beat the heat out here. Supposed to be 122f in
alm Springs on Sunday, possibly the hottest day of all time. Record is 123f.
