Looks like a great battle!  Thanks for sharing.

How much did you have to modify the rules for modern skirmishing?

...well, to be true to the period, their are quite a few specific rules for the bush war...it is quite a unique conflict in a number of way...at least in relation to WW2 chain of command. However modern conflicts if taken fairly generically require not too many changes in CoC as platoon level combat didn't changes a whole lot throughout the Cold War era (IMO).

Cheers
