Vietnam Action

While my brother was here, we played a little Vietnam gaming. Not too much, as we were feeling our way through the rules, but enough to get some fun action in and get some pics. We're playing Piquet's Forgotten Heroes - with some additional flavor tacked on.

The airmobile stuff is really fun. A Hog came in and did some fairly good suppression work on the NVA on the edge of the LZ ...but there were too many NVA around. One of the three Slicks went down while coming in, but two others successfully delivered their squads to the ground for the fire-fight!
