Valor & Victory Modern Expansion Demo Game – Vietnam Helo Assault
In this stream we will be taking a look at the new Modern Expansion rules published for the Valor & Victory squad infantry wargame system originally published by Barry Doyle (modern expansion by James Johnson).
We’ll be throwing in at least a taste of many of the new rules, including booby traps, helicopters, enhanced options for air strikes, civilians, medics and CASEVAC, POWs, new ground vehicles, and a beginning look at hidden insurgent movement and basic AI system.
5PM UK Time, 12 Noon US East Time

The map for tomorrow's game, a village in the Central Highlands, III Corps TCZ Sector.
Some of the units and game function counters in tomorrow's game.
As part of set up, the Americans have entered the board and alredy there is going to be some heavy action here at "LZ X-Ray." Note the leader, named for characters in the file "Platoon."
Here in the south, Hueys h ave dropped rifle squads in these rice paddies, hopefully under the cover of the UH-1H gunship. 
This will be a solitaire demo game, and I'm trying some "AI" mechanic and hidden movement for the PAVN / NLF force. Cards will be drawn from a select deck, with the card indicated the forces that appear (when spotted, encountered, or when they fire).. 
I'll be experimenting with a VERY RUDIMENTARY AI mechanic to help govern larger units in the PAVN / NLF force. Also shown are the American support assets, includiog submunition artillery, Snake-Eye bombs from air strikes, and napalm. Time for some "Snake n' Nape!"
