Thank you for your service, it's a shame that the Vietnam War (and anything post WW2 for that matter) gets as overlooked as it does in wargaming.

I read this earlier and I thought y'all might be interested. The editor adds in a lot of "humor," but what the VC vet has to say is worth putting up with it.

A quick UI suggestion: when selecting the engineer's repair ability, show only units that are in need of repair (as opposed to scrolling through units at base). It's not a big deal, but it's just a thought.

I just noticed this while trying to score a better victory. If you have the game won, you can just reload the last auto save, end the turn, and the game gives you another victory. The problem is that you can do this to boost your rank and awards. Possible solution, maybe change it to where the last ...

I see what you're saying about the HQ, but I feel like there should be a threat of it (maybe something for further down the road).

I've had a few days to spend a lot of time with the game and I've noticed a few things. - There is a graphical glitch, where after combat has occurred in an area (say an airstrike) you will occasionally see the shockwave effect pop up every now and then until you end the turn. - NVA/VC do not attack...

I've been able to rack up many of the medals, any tips on how to kill 100 enemy units?

This should work, it would make sense considering all those extra eyes on the vehicle.

Maybe give it a combat boost if infantry are riding in it?

Think Vietnam'66 Mekong Delta, Vietnam'67 Vietnamisation, Vietnam'68 Tet Offensive, Vietnam'70 Withdrawal, Vietnam'73 Fall of Saigon,.... Welcome to my world :) So much and yet so little time! I hope this game does well and you're able to do all of that though. BTW you forgot the French and there w...

I just finished my first game, regular difficulty, and won decisively. Some of my thoughts: Pros - I like the achievement/medal system, adds some replay value and encourages different play styles - Simplicity, I didn't have to read a 300+ page manual to figure out what to do and how to do it - Uniqu...

I've played the other two games and they are slightly more demanding, then PC. The mechanics are quite similar, but there are a few differences. You have to worry about man power, money, national morale, and ammo (for the big guns) along with declaring war on your neighbors. Outside of that; you've ...

Thank you, that did the trick

Hi all, I'm having an issue: whenever I start up the game, I have to play the tutorial mission to unlock MP, SP Campaigns, and the editor. I've had to do this a quite a bit, any idea on what I can do? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

i've only beaten the poland mission on 1939 camp and looked at a few scens to see the map. all in all, i enjoy it, the font and unit icons seem a little small to me though.

what about tanks and off-map support?

I'd just like to see Italian units in the game, as so many other games tend to leave them out and US 10th Mountain Division; just because I'm stuck up at Ft Drum lol
