Hey - it's super easy to download, free and very easy to use, especially as a player. You just go into full screen mode then just use your mouse. Left click to select and move units, right click to pan around the map and mouse wheel to zoom in and out. My Space Crusade campaign file is almost finished, I got a working macro to deal random cards and assigned the alien event cards to them. I've also added tokens for Imperial Fist, I've just got to import the cards for Imperial Fist and Blood Angels and set up the tokens for Blood Angels and it'll be ready to go!
I've added basic enemy unit info into each model token, meaning you just hover your mouse over a token and a little picture will pop up with details for movement, Armour, firing and hand-to-hand. The alien console is also there for general information.
Hopefully I'll have it finished this weekend. I think it has huge potential to allow players to play in real time, even across the globe
