G'day, Caught a bit of a doco on river boat action in Vietnam today. Inspired many DS/SG thoughts and I was wondering if anyone had ever given it a go? Cheers

Havn't gone back and done anything with it since then. The DSII rules seem pretty straightforward. Also, the last GZG ECC featured a Vietnam scenario that from the photos appears to have included some very nice riverine monitors.

I believe that Stuart Murray did a Vietnam based game for GZGECC, "Charlie Don't Surf", that used riverboats. Anyone in that game care to comment? --- Brian Bell bbell1@insight.rr.com ICQ: 12848051 AIM: Rlyehable YIM: Rlyehable Cygnus X1.info http://www.cygnusx1.info/ --- [quoted original message omitted]

They have a lot of interesting stuff deployed or on order. Stealthy watercraft, missile-armed hovercraft, coastal batteries (guns and missiles, mobile or in bunkers), coastal ranger infantry, mines (water and land), a sophisticated networked sensor system (remember, the Finns brought you Nokia phones)... Thousands of islands, mostly wooded. Lots of ideas to make a game that's fun for the invaders ;-) Greetings
