MACV-SOG Mission To Laos, 4 July 1970

A SOG team is dropped into Laos to monitor traffic on the Ho Chi Minh Trail.





Unfortunately the traffic is heavier than expected and things rapidly spiral out of control...



AAR soon.

Uh oh, I hope they can get Sandy to drop a bit of snake on that tank...

I love those trucks, they look great.

Nice

Here's the AAR:

Mix of good and bad luck there. I can't imagine what that tank would have done to the teams , though at that close a range maybe not much.
I loved the motion blur on the JG's rotor, really cool look!

My wargaming buddy: "How does that look?"

Me: "Spin it faster!"

Him: "How about now?" (rolling his eyes)

Ah, the sacrifices we make for that perfect Insta-shot!

Just saw this thread. Great report and good looking game. Your SOG team did better shooting than your FWF units usually do. Do the rules give them an edge? With all of their training, it would certainly be realistic.

You could follow up with a Bright Light mission to recover the SOG bodies.
