Vietnam 65 unbiased comment

It is 1965 and the US ground war in Vietnam is in full swing. As a US Army commander, wage a counter-insurgency (COIN) war to secure the Ia Drang valley, on the border with Cambodia.

Patch/Update on it's way..... :)

1. Fog of war , map tiles out of detection ranges will be 'greyed out'
2. Weather , rain will effect combat and Airstrike availability , three day weather forecast on Intel map
3. Villages will have names
4. Player can name US bases and units
5. Combat modifiers to include weather, supply status, proximity to friendly units
6. Custom game option , player can set variables for custom game incl. victory conditions, enemy aggression etc
7. Hex overlays on both maps
8. UI improvements - upgrade on deselect function, Action buttons for selected unit to move to bottom of screen as opposed to being clustered around the unit, helps with tile selection and panning

My uncle, who was a green beret, had a view choice words for the description on the game. He wasn't to happy with "not strong combat" stat. Lol. He did like "can avoid combat" though, had some crazy stories about that, been hearing them since I was a kid and they never get old.

Oh and I love the game! Supply system doesn't bother me much but the update you are working on addresses all the issues I had! Can't wait for "firebase ripcord" becoming under attack :).

I love the suprises, in my current game I was only encountering a few VC cadres in the areas I was patrolling. I took them out with ease along with a base found with my green berets. Everything was going well for first 10-15 turns and I made a fiirebase and forward base in some jingle I cleared deep in territory. Well from out of the blue VC CADRES came out from their caves and destroyed a unit, sent another retreating to my fire base, attacked my firebase and damaged the arty gun, and shot down a helicopter that was supplying some units!!! Completely caught me off guard! Now I am afraid to send helicopters to supply my firebase in fear of losing them! All units have to pull back and clear the jungles around the firebase and my U.S. base camp. What a great suprise!! It was like a full planned offensive once the VC got into position! Amazing!
