So I'm thinking about "fringe conflicts" that ASL is geared to simulate. Obviously the Spanish Civil War gets a decent amount of design, and there's surprisingly generous coverage for weird stuff like post-VJ Day suppression of nationalist movements.
The biggest 20th century conventional conflict in the Americas (excluding, if you'll allow me, Pearl Harbor and Attu ) was the Chaco War - Bolivia and Paraguay going at it over a mineral-rich area of altiplano. Paraguay got the better of it.
There is one scenario I can find on the Scenario Archive - Critical Hit's "Raiders of the Chaco" (https://www.aslscenarioarchive.com/scenario.php?id=57401). This sounds cool, but it's definitely not maximally cool. That covers 1st Nanawa - but 2nd Nanawa, later in the war, included the Bolivians sending in 5 of their small collection of tanks (3 x Vickers 6-tons and 2 x Carden-Loyd Tankettes), whilst the Paraguayans sent in 4 fighter-bombers.
Maybe someone could work on these, eh? What sorts of design and chrome do you think would be necessary?
