  • Vietnam War research site

    Came across this site:



    Still making my way through it, but it seems to be a fairly balanced view of the 1st and 2nd Vietnam Wars.
    The reason that the American Army does so well in wartime, is that war is chaos, and the American Army practices chaos on a daily basis.

    It's too bad I found this now, as I'm (unfortunately) discontinuing the Vietnam game I had going on...looks like a great resource however. Good find.

    (Speaking of which, the game is GRUNT, table-top roleplaying action for a Vietnam setting. Pretty solid, I like it, but I feel it's much better suited for 'live' gaming, much more shock value to things! The PBP format I ran it in tends to slow things down and limit the 'tense' part of the action, though I'm sure it could be done by those more skilled than me.)

      Yeah, PBM seems to lack the fun of face-to-face, but what can you do

      The first military game I ever played was Recon, and just to be cruel to my players, I set the game during the First Vietnam War....
