I have enough Montagnards if required and I can attend. I've an 89.4% chance of coming at the moment.

John Watson

Just to add to the confusion, I may well attend. I know nothing about the game, have no troops etc, so I expect to win and win handsomely.

That's how it works John!

Ignorance is a huge advantage sometimes  ;D

John, you are most welcome to attend. There are plenty of spare armies.
I would claim they are a very good set of rules.
We (martin, Stewart, ??)  took it to Historicon where the two teenagers found it simple, but the older man (Joe?) said it was all too complex and he was going back to Napoleonics.  Well, I enjoy them a lot.

Shall I put you in the "maybe" group? or the "I will be there" group. The maybe group can always join in on an existing table. Most folk are happy to have joiners in.

I'm now 98.2% sure I'm coming for this day. I will bring my veteran Australians and maybe my Montagnards too. If anything else is required let me know.

martin goddard

That sounds great Sean
Maybe Ade or some  other would like to keep you compnay on that long drive?

Big Mike

Guys,
Just remembered there is thing thing called the RFCM Forum.
Looking forward to the Vietnam Day and will bring a tables as promised.
Just binge watched 'Platoon' and 'Apocalypse Now'. 'Danger Close' is next. Surely these are the best 3 'Nam films? Maybe add 'Full Metal Jacket'.
Mike   

Colonel Kilgore

Welcome back to the fold, Michael  :)

I would agree on these being the top 3 Vietnam films that I've seen.

Maybe add in The Odd Angry Shot for your Aussies?
