rapid fire vietnam helicopter question
« on: September 27, 2008, 02:22:46 PM »
Does anyone play rapid fire? I have been trying out converting the rule set to Vietnam. I am looking for ideas on how to use helicopters and jet aircraft. Are they are any similar rules from other systems that may fit in?

Thanks in advance guys!

We used to use Rapid Fire, but we've been using PBI for a few years now.

But there was a society that updated/upgraded the rules a few years back, starting with a 1946/48 "Fatherland" version.
I know there was an unofficial Korea expansion (got pulled fairly fast after intervention by the authors) which is half-way there.

You could always try emailing the authors direct or ask Grimsby Wargames Society :
