1 JULY 1966 TO 31 DECEMBER 1966

This volume is the fourth in a series of 18 scenarios trying to recreate in detail the various campaigns of the Vietnam War between 8 March 1965 (the landing of the first two US ground battalions) and 29 January 1973 (beginning of the Cease-fire). It covers the second half of 1966, a period that marked a significant change in the allied strategy. General Westmoreland, having recieved substantial reinforcements, went on the offensive in selected "priority areas" and began corps-scale operation that November with ATTLEBORO. It was also the period chosen by the Northvietnamese to open a new front along the DMZ by invading Quang Tri Province and drawing III MAF away from its coastal enclaves. The human player will earn VPs by capturing objective flags on map but also by fulfilling a number of missions during the game (for example by conducting combat operations, securing certain areas, establishing bases and CIDG camps etc...). A chronology of events has been included in this manual, it serves both as a guideline for the player and to explain the missions the he will have to conduct to earn VPs.
