BELLOLUDI VIETNAM

Recieved the new rule set from Belloludi which covers 1955-1975 ,aimed at Vietnam but usable for any period within the timeframe . The rules are the same layout as their ww1 rule set and plays with the same command dice system ,aimed at new players as are the ww1 set but ive enjoyed playimg those i think these are ideal for quick games on a club night or sunday morning before the dining room table is needed for the Sunday Roast . playable solo, or for 2 or more players a decent game will probably have 20-30 nminiatures for a quick game to learn the rules . The book is 29 pages containing the rules and advanced rules which cover all the usual Nam requirements civilians , booby traps , tanks , boats ,aircraft even fragging your unliked officers . before getting a game in I really like these enough to give them a 9/10

The New Forest

Recently bought some cheap trees on line and was surprised not only how good they looked but the size of them , definately for 28mm and some of the larger ones will certainly depict the talll trees of the american wilderness or deep jungles . 28mm figure to show scale .

Nam , force on force style

Played a great game at the weekend US air cav taking ion the NVA and VC we used the Force on Force ambush valley supplement a fantastic set of rules ,got so into the game I only took 1 picture , the Photo shows ther start of the heli landing by the US forces sadly for them it was right in the middle of my ambush area ,the first round of fire took out 2 Hueys then mt NVA went in for some nasty hand to hand which caused horrendous casualties on the Americans . On the other side of the table my small VC force tangled with some special forces and managed to come out on top of that as well , a bad day on the news for the folks back home
