Consimpress Games

Well I think that they're all pretty self-explanatory. They simply provide you with a few more options if you don't need or want the default states. I think I've used the alternatives only a couple of times - you might want to take a look at my "Ici c'est la France" gamebox for one... Rega...

Yes, as long as both players have exactly the same gameboxes in their libraries. As soon as the host player loads his, the other player's will auto load.

I switched Avast off for ten minutes and ZT installed and ran fine. However, once it was back on, ZT failed to load again. Time to find a...

It's highly unlikely that those exist and unless someone wants to scan the components to build them, I doubt if you'll see them anytime soon.

But, those are really old and out of date games - surely you'd be much better off using more recent ones? I think you'd sell a lot more books.

Thanks Yor (it was a lot of work) :)

GMT supplied me with most of the graphics (via Carl Paradis the designer) and I rejigged them here and there.
