Ho Chi Minh Trail Airstrike, 3 February 1970

Along a quiet stretch of the Ho Chi Minh Trail, the stillness is interrupted by the sound of a propeller aircraft.

'

Over the hill, a VC supply column begins making a frantic scramble to get across the bridge; from the way it is circling, it looks like the FAC plane is calling up reinforcements....

Yet another one!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yipes!! I will be on the edge of my seat until this is resolved.

Here's the AAR:

Really neat! Lots of good action.

You have beaucoup porters and aircraft. I was half expecting a B-52 to turn up. Didn't need it though.

Your ample skills as a novelist show up well in how much you can put in a few words that really pack a punch. You set the standard for AARs.

Thanks heaps. I know doing those are a lot of work.

Tom

Thanks Tom - it was a fun game, with my AA teams throwing terrible dice. I had some wicked crossfire going from 12 AA guns (a fistful of dice) and I still only hit one plane.

That's just the way it should be. We want the good guys to win.

Tom

Only when I'm leading the Free World Forces...

Sooooo cool!

OTB, When I play bad guys, I do try to win, but I would really rather lose as long as I have some figure or two or three that do something cool.
