About the Game

The War in Vietnam is a relatively simple yet accurate portrayal of the Vietnam War that features two decks of event cards, an area map of Southeast Asia (and parts of North Vietnam), deployment cards (for easy set-up), and dozens of specific and unique game piece sculptures at the regimental level in most cases (everything from mortars to aircraft carriers), plus special and optional rules and bonus material like a computer version and a strategy guide.

The game can be played as individual scenarios spanning different periods of the war or as the entire Vietnam War on an area map with ~800 miniatures of air, land, and sea units of all combatants in a set-up designed to be playable in a few weekends.
