Absolutely, and just finished a new Vietnam scenario, with more in the works!

The new one is called "The Long Road to Pleiku" which deals with the withdrawal of G.M. 100 from An Khe to Pleiku through the infamous Mang Yang Pass in 1954.

A long scenario, but a bloody nail biter!

Oh my word, what a massacre that was! Keep going Jason - you are probably heartily sick of it by now, but keep pushing!

The battle of Medjerda is almost forgotten,but was fought against highly disciplined German troops and blasted a route straight to Tunis it was a perfect infiltration battle and should be remembered as the best fought British battle of the war.

This is a rather large map as it covers from An Khe to the outskirts of Pleiku. Here is the jump map.

Here is the trail of the column on leaving the environs of An Khe:

Here is head of the column about to have a bad day.

Image

And here is a level 3 view of PK22 and Mang Yang Pass on the left... once the column clears the pass, there is still a fair distance to travel.

I'm trying to get a vehicle bridge built across some ditch the Egyptians dug. They blew every bridge in Lower Egypt. I guess engineers work just fine.
