I think this is the right place to ask this...
Does anyone know why battlechronicler.com is gone?

Not familiar with the site, but I do like little mysteries... I checked them out on internet archive, and the site was up as recently as a couple of months back, with no hint of a pending closure, but neither was there any sign of much activity. Spooled thru a few pages, found a forum listing for them: groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/battle-chronicler Activity pretty sparse over there, but again, no official announcement of closure or anything. Most recent news on the site itself was back in May of 2011 (on archived page from a year later) -> web.archive.org/web/20120618014935/http://battlechronicler.com/bc098dfg67/news/My guess would be dwindling interest, leading to abandonment. Some hosting companies charge too much to keep something going, esp. with a domain name, to make it worth a person's while, after a while. But do check out the google group, unless someone here has a more concrete answer.

Thank you. I had a copy of BC on my old computer, now long gone and unrecoverable. I thought it would be useful for a project I've been working on.

Try browsing the archived site to see if you can download it that way, or ask on their forums. Certainly worth a try, I've been pleasantly surprised with what I've been able to find through the internet archive with a little digging...

Never heard of that program... someone know what it do that Vassal can't?
I mean: i know Vassal is for online play, but it could be used for a battle-report as well...
