Vassal – Online Adaptations of Board Games

Given the name I was expecting this to be affiliated with Tom Vasel (founder of The Dice Tower and notable game reviewer) in some way, but it seems to be completely unrelated.

And all around good guy. Have you met him in person? He's shockingly tall. Taller than you would think possible from his videos. I saw him again at PAX Unplugged last week... I'm always surprised by just how impossibly tall he is.

I met him at Gencon this year, but I didn't realize who he was at the time. I only listen to the podcast, so I didn't recognize him. He was sitting on a Rathskellers gaming table and I started asking him about the table. It was only when some people asked for a photo that I realized who he was.

I would assume the name is just a reference to Tom.
