First Indochina War (1974)

This game covers the 1950-1952 war in Indochina between the Vietminh and the French. Rules cover the de Lattre Line, Militia, and airborne operations. Game includes a single map and 154 single-sided counters. Though the Vietminh forces were not strong enough to face the French Army in open combat, they could, by limited actions and infiltration, frustrate and thwart a superior military force. Examine the early struggle in Southeast Asia in this game, played with die-cut, Brigade-size counters on a three-color, 22x28" map. The game ends when either player accumulates a high enough "victory point" score. Rules cover bombardment, guerillas, militia, supply, air drops, reinforcements and replacements.
