"Well done, self-contained rulebook"
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

Nam is a nicely done extension of the WWII ruleset for Flames of War. Unlike previous editions of the rules however, Nam is self contained: it has the core rules as well as history, units, and scenarios. In addition, the core rules are explained using units that feature in the book. For example, rules for tanks are illustrated with pictures of M48A3 Patton tanks. This makes the book immersive. Rules for helicopters are also included, as are those for brown water navy. All in all, a very useful addition to your gaming collection.

Description

Vietnam. In a small corner of the world, one of the most bloody wars to be fought occurred in this small county in Southeast Asia. Traditionally framed as a war of small skirmishes, long patrols, and guerilla ambushes, there is a lot more that happened, including full-scale offensives and pitched battles… The US and its allies have all the advantages of mobility and firepower. The ubiquitous Huey helicopter has become a symbol of the war itself as it carries troops into battle and unloads rockets on the enemy. Heavily armed flotillas sail up the windy Mekong Delta. Heavy tanks and M113 `tracks’ bash their way through the jungle searching for enemy strongpoints, and resolute `grunts’ hold firebases against fierce enemy assaults… Meanwhile, the Nationalists have all the advantages of the home team. They fight as guerillas, choosing the time and place of major operations or surprise attacks and appearing from nowhere to ambush enemy hunting them. When the time is right, they even commit their tanks, armoured personnel carriers, and seasoned troops into the fray to achieve total victory. `Nam gives you have everything* you need to take command of one of these forces. Building on the success of Battlefront’s Team Yankee, these rules and forces are easy to learn and use. Within these pages you can find all of the scenarios, missions, and notes on terrain to fully brief you before you step onto your Huey to lead your troops to the landing zone! *Well, almost everything. A groovy playlist of 1960s tunes is compulsory for maximum playability.
