It gives the impression that Vassal is _only_ for wargames, and primarily hex and chit wargames.
If that’s deliberate, I disagree that it’s a good idea, but not enough to argue about it.
If that’s not deliberate, perhaps some more variety would be a good idea?

Screenshots which are lossless and can be cropped to be in the neighborhood of 1600x1200px are welcome.

OK, any other criteria? They all seem to include the toolbar, is that a requirement? png format?

The existing ones happen to include the toolbar; it’s not a requirement. PNG is fine in that it’s a lossless format; any other lossless format is also fine. I will convert as needed.
The only hard requirements are that the screenshots be lossless and croppable to something 4:3 in the neighborhood of 1600x1200 and that they look good.

OK, here’s one:

An alternative slightly more zoomed in image for Pax Pamir 2e:

Or a version at 100% zoom, if that is preferred (I notice that seems to be the case for the other examples)
