I share Alexandros' pain - playing the VC when you're hit by a pre-game bombardment is the tough way to start a game! I think when this scenario was playtested, we went through it a few times with differing results on each occassion - I certainly remember being the US player on one occassion and getting slaughtered! Hope to see more of your Vietnam set up in the fuure, and hope to catch you on Saturday at Salute!Sidney Roundwoodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14795563060856586670noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7541855965348525624.post-81869157599390321952012-04-16T13:56:59.950+02:002012-04-16T13:56:59.950+02:00Impresionante el terrenoImpresionante el terrenoCDOSChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15866662242495315865noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7541855965348525624.post-14949332878515365032012-04-16T12:28:02.262+02:002012-04-16T12:28:02.262+02:00I made two mistakes.

The first was that by more than four months since I played, my knowledge of the rules had greatly declined at this time.<br /><br />My second mistake was my deployment.<br /><br />The rules of the display was clear, all troops must be out of the jungle. I deployed the mortar on the hill, the AA machine guns in the depths of the jungle. And the other platoons making a square around the town.<br /><br />In the first round, napalm destroyed my first platoon. artillery suppressed some of my second platoon and a machine gun aa. smoke barrier fell over my mortar and the third platoon.<br /><br />When the first helicopter landed, I only had available a platoon and a machine gun aa. on the other side of the landing zone<br /><br />Try out the smoke as soon as possible and opened fire on the first Americans squad. With blinds Dummys try to lure the rest of America into the jungle, where were the rest of my troops and my AA guns.<br /><br />in the third Turn, cobra helicopter, killed and suppressed much of my third platoon and forced me to retire and seek for a di di mau. With the rest of my troops advance to the edge of the jungle.<br /><br />From the fifth inning, when it was clear that it wasn't a mission to search and destroy (as I thought), it was a rescue mission of civilians by the Americans, my troops were on the other side of town, if he wanted to attack the landing area had to go through the village by open area in front of two platoons of American whole. With a helicopter hovering overhead charges and an ongoing mission of artillery. Take the decision out of my Tactical Edge before suffering more casualties or captured.<br /><br />this scenario is difficult for the Vietcong, you have no orders or objectives. Do not know you have to do, just know you have a lot of Americans down in a helicopter and a lot of bombs falling from the sky. knowledge is power. I would have to be attacked with everything from the start, and have turned everything into a hot landing zone.Alexandroshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01364366594914227753noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7541855965348525624.post-7812781367054531712012-04-16T07:11:10.547+02:002012-04-16T07:11:10.547+02:00excellent report Benito.

I played this scenario at Enfilade last year and it went very differently for the Americans (which I was one of).Victorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10829654530839299051noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7541855965348525624.post-54666798051718942012012-04-16T01:59:12.238+02:002012-04-16T01:59:12.238+02:00That is a stunning set up, Anibal!
Poor VC player...That is a stunning set up, Anibal!<br /><br />Poor VC player got it from the start. It could have been very different if he'd been able to avoid the napalm. Better luck next time!Ben Gilmourhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09548280904041987733noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7541855965348525624.post-82603116086987689862012-04-15T20:47:37.033+02:002012-04-15T20:47:37.033+02:00Great report Benito.
