- just for reference..this war is mainly an infantry-centered combat.. minimal air op recorded.
- i checked PMC 128 vnam, well.. it's just big enough to cover the historical combat area!
The wiki map shows several target objectives of china ground forces.. all can be found in this theater, by TacEdit.- tho there's no siginificant air operation invovled in historical event, a modified ficitional campaign is doable..both sides flying russian ac.
- a futuristic campaign could develop in this area..fighting for the resources in south china sea. Both sides operate flankers, and this time..US could join the game against china invasion.
driving the huge carrier deep into Tonkin Gulf, just outside Hi-phong port.. well it should be sufficient to inspire wargamers/campaign designers working on a fictional campaign.
