The Battle of Song Dai, Vietnam, June 1951 - Devon Wargames Group

[carojon]

One of the games run at last month's meeting of the Devon Wargames Group was a French Indo-China action using Chain of Command.



Steve, our game-meister for the day, gives an historical background to this action and covers off the tweaks to Chain of Command necessary to modify the rules to fit the period.



If you would like to see more and how the game turned out, then just follow the link to the club blog.

Hi Chaps,
Thanks for your comments, much appreciated and I will draw Steve’s attention to them as he puts a lot of effort into his collection for this period of Vietnam and his enthusiasm is infectious.

Cheers

Great report.  And nice-looking terrain and figures.  It seems the French held on by the skin of their teeth...
