We took some time to go over the latest and greatest news from Cold War and JTCS. After we returned to a Street Without Joy and went hunting for Viet Minh. This session really showed the value of having proper artillery support for assaults as well as the effectiveness of having a leader in your assaults, or having a leader in your defence, especially against overwhelming numbers. Progress is going generally well in the scenario, there are a number of small battles all over the map, which makes things interesting. I'm longing for helicopters, that's for sure.

Well that was a good session, lots of action happening all around and we are making excellent headway. There were a lot of good assaults and the artillery was finally starting to make a difference. We are making good progress throughout the map, cleaning out a lot of Viet Minh areas and even managed to find some headquarters and various supply depots. We're creeping up to a Minor Victory, but we're not there yet. Still a few minor pockets that need to be dealt with before we wrap this up. Exciting times!

After a brief run down on the planning for JTCS 2.03 and a current update on the Campaign Series Cold War game, we returned to finish off the Street Without Joy scenario. We were quite successful and finished the scenario with a major victory, capturing the final locations before the end of the scenario to ensure the Event Points were successfully added. Since we had time, we played Hoa Binh 2 which takes place with the French in 1951. It's a fun little scenario that went to the bitter end. Even though the Vietnam irregulars weren't the strongest, they were still a pain the rear to weed out of the mountain pass. How I longed for gunships indeed!

We took some time to go over what's coming with the JTCS 2.03 UPDATE as well as the Campaign Series Middle East and Vietnam UPDATES. I showed off the latest rabbit hole I've been working on with the East Germans and then we dove into a Campaign Series Vietnam scenario The Mauling, which is a clearing operation in 1965. The scenario went extremely well, but I shared a wackload of valuable lessons to be learned when playing as the US Infantry. All that ample support made our job a lot easier, that's for sure.

We took some time to go over what's coming with the pending JTCS 2.03 UPDATE before we dove into a nasty Vietnam scenario. We have elements of the Riverine Task Force and are advancing into a knock Viet Cong area, west of Dong Tam. Generally the advance is going well, with the exception of the 3d ARVN Marine Corps battalion. It's landing zone is... well, hell. That is definitely the hottest Landing Zone I've come across in the game so far and my helicopters have suffered tremendously for it. What a mess, seriously. But fun!
