Campaign Series Vietnam - YouTube

After we went over the latest and greatest news about the Campaign Series, we decided to start up playing the Dien Bien Phu scenarios in order that were created by David Galster. This should be fun as I haven't played most of them yet. More importantly, many of the scenarios are designed to be played from the Viet Minh perspective. Hopefully I will be able to provide some intel on how to play the Viet Minh and later Viet Cong more effectively. It should be a challenge indeed, but a fun one! We finish off the first landing scenario and then start up scenario number two as the Viet Minh where we are preparing for a frontal assault against the well defended French position - Beatrice.

There was lots of awesome discussion today during the feed, thank you for those that participate in that! We went over the latest news about the Cold War game and the pending JTCS BETA UPDATE. Then we dove back into the second scenario in the Dien Bien Phu series of scenarios. We spent the first part preparing for the assault, and suffering casualties in the meantime, but now that darkness has arrived, we're in the thick of the action. The major challenge here, even though the French are isolated, they still pack a punch and we're suffering for it. The artillery wasn't nearly as effective as I had hoped for the previous turns, and we are starting the up close and personal assault phase. For better or worse.
