Not yet. I assembled it last weekend, and I've got a scenario set up, but I haven't yet found time to play it.
Reading the rules, one question popped into my head: Can units from different companies stack together? If so, are they forbidden from attacking together (since a rule says two units from the
same company stacked together must attack together)?
I don' t care about the lack of a campaign game; I figure the scenarios will keep me busy for as long as my interest holds out. And if it turns out to be a good game, I'll investigate
Lock & Load.
Anyhow, this is kinda fun. I've played very few Vietnam wargames in my time. All that comes to mind is the Battle for Hue (don't recall which game company produced that) and Firepower. Oh, and Platoon. Not my period really. I have a brother-in-law who's really into it. (Me, I was just glad the war ended when it did, 'cause I had to register for the draft in '73.)
