It’s a new system, not related to BG, though BG players will feel at home with it.

Its turn based, but not straight IGOUGO, as both players are fully involved in each phase due to how the mechanics work. It’s very immersive and focuses all players constantly during the game turn…

The game can be played as a straight fight, there are 11 mission types currently, but it’s really made to play as a narrative campaign for the US players as the VC are umpire controlled. What’s nice is that players can take turns being the umpire if they wish.

Book currently is US forces versus Viet Cong. No ANZACs as yet, might be a free PDF for them though… 😉 but be easy to just use them anyway if you know the platoon layout.

Games are based around squads and go up from one to three, with attached support elements joining them.
