Releasing a module for a very old game with 4 iterations is going to have essentially no revenue impact.
What it will do, and he has no way of directly monitoring this, is increase the number of people playing that game.
A policy of simultaneous game publishing and module releasing like MMP has would pull in some longtime PG series hold-outs, but at the end of the day Vassal is about making it easier for people to play your game.
The publisher must choose a position:
- I want to sell games and don't care if they're ever played
- I want my games to be played as much as possible, and support them accordingly
