Cold War, Vietnam?

Post by MikeAP »

When, if ever, will we see Battle Academy hit a more modern setting?

The first two periods that come to mind are Vietnam and 1980s Cold War (Team Yankee, Red Storm Rising)

Think a Cold War version would work better with more scope maps Russia invades Europe USA invades Russia etc ! Vietnam would be just napalm and jungle I should imagine

There were a few urban battles in Vietnam and don't forget the Brown Water Navy! You could create hundreds of scenarios just based on that alone.

I used to have an old PC game that put you in command of a River Patrol Boat! you could cycle through the gunner positions or pilot...wish I could remember the name of it!!!

Sounds like fun to me...helos, firebases, patrols, and all with no insects, rain, heat, smell, and rotten chow
