So I started playing this game a couple of days ago. It's an interesting little foray into winning hearts and minds in asymmetrical warfare. Each new game has a random map and one can rename units if they desire. We desire so just post away if you want to.
We're going with the harder of the two difficulty presets because hey I've won two games in a row on regular and I'll have help for all of you.
Looks like we got a decent enough roll. With that nice central road we might consider using more APCs than I usually do.
These are the units we have and the units we can buy(and their costs). I didnt include it, but we also have a howitzer.
The general rules are as follows:
- Only the infantry can see anything.
- Artillery cant move on it's own and can only deploy at bases, but can fire long distances and is very powerful.
- Everything has to be supplied via helicopter if it isn't in a base or it dies.
- HQ heals and repairs stuff, but stuff can be repaired or refueled in the field by engineers.
- Artillery Shells and Reinforcements all start at HQ, but fuel and supplies can be found at your firebase.
- Only one fire-base can be built and you cant move it.
- ARVN units can be trained by Green Berets(the only unit that can see more than one tile) at Forward Bases.
- The enemy can appear more or less and random.(not really, but it feels like it)
There are other things but it'll be safe enough to ignore them until they come up or someone asks.

Anyways, I'm sure it'll be fun. If you want a unit, just claim it in the thread and I'll post turn one once I get a little interest. If you have any questions about the game, I'll be happy to answer them. I'm not affiliated in anyway with the publisher, I just enjoy playing it.
