    Upcoming : Vietnam - Battle of Dien Bien Phu

    Ive Begun work on a Vietnam Scenario about the first indochina war between the Viet minh and the French. Im going to focus on the battle of Dien Bien Phu , The turning point in this war.

    Im new to your forum so please excuse me if i ask some stupid questions.

    Speaking of which here is one now. If anybody has any Vietnam/jungle related units,terrain or citys could they please post them as ive found these seem to be hard to find.

    If i can get a few of my ruddy Unit.gifs to post i would, but it dosnt seem to be working, so bare with me, im new.

      Looking good, Matthew. I think the Anzac did some Viet Cong who would be of use as Viet Minh. Check either his site or the modern gfx showcase.

            They did have a few small (and i emphasise small) victories in the first indochina war. but their faith in static defences was once again their undoing (maginot line anyone?)

                          Be sure to credit him.

                          These icons were designed especially for a request of mine and were untill now unpublished.


                          Mmm.... on a second look, i guess you are looking for cities gfx, not improvements.
                          Oh well.....

                          I hope they come in handy.

                            ...as did Spain and Portugual -are they also arogant and perturubed?

                            At the same time as the brief US raids, the French Foreign Legion had spent several years kicking several shades of, erm, stuffing from the Libyan troops in Chad.
