The Liberation of South Vietnam: War Rules (2024)

The Liberation of South Vietnam is a squad-based tabletop wargame rules set that works with any scale of miniatures. Move your platoon through the jungles of Vietnam as the North Vietnamese Army and Viet Cong close in on you. Each turn, a card is drawn and randomly placed on the table, which closes in on your platoon. Only when the card can be spotted by your men will they know what the threat is, if it is a threat. A pdf to print your own cards comes with the rules. Every turn brings new dangers with event cards that keep the enemy’s movements unknown until the last moment. With simple yet deep mechanics, you’ll need strategy, quick thinking, and careful resource management to complete your missions and bring your troops home. This game isn’t just about combat—it’s about survival, strategy, and the ultimate challenge of winning hearts and minds in one of history’s most complex conflicts. Perfect for wargame enthusiasts and history buffs alike, this ruleset is your gateway to an authentic and gripping Vietnam War experience. The rules’ layout parodies the American military field manuals of the Vietnam era, including handwritten notes and rule clarifications throughout the book. —description from the publisher
