SURVIVING 'NAM SOLO-COOP WARGAME RULES
You’ve trained with your soldiers and now you’re here — “In Country.” Vietnam. You have 12 long months ahead of you, but you’re their sergeant, and it is your job to see them safely home. Surviving ‘Nam is a cooperative/solo skirmish miniatures game playable with individually-based miniatures of any scale. Players control a non-commissioned officer trying to keep their fire team of 4-5 infantrymen alive. The enemy is controlled by Event Cards and rules. They are invisible one moment and then pop up all around you the next. You make all the rolls. Your choices mean life or death for your men. The rules are simple, quick, bloody, and fast-moving. Surviving ‘Nam includes 12 scenarios — one mission for each month of your soldier’s tour in Vietnam. Up to four players control U.S., Australian, South Vietnamese or whichever nationality troops you want to command. Campaign rules cover soldiers gaining experience and individual traits during their time in Vietnam. They also cover the results of wounds, recovery time, introduction of replacements to the team, promotions, and more.
