For what it's worth, you can totally run TWGS on your linux box without a Windows VM. If this is of interest to you, let me know and I can help you get things configured :)

Also, when you say Ashrella, do you mean Ambroshia? If yes, I can also help here. Ambroshia has a linux port which needs a bit of massaging to get to work but runs perfectly once the initial setup is done.
