After a brief update on all the goodies that are going on we returned to the ARVN disaster north of Plei Me to see if we could recover the situation. What a scrap it has turned out to be! A plethora of North Vietnamese regulars ambushing our column. We were broken up into different ambush sites, and the struggle was real indeed. Artillery and airstrikes have helped turn the tide, but it's been a bloody affair so far. The second flights of reinforcement Hogs have appeared on the scene and will hopefully help clear the last ambush to gain some form of victory. But we all know what they say about plans...

We returned to see if we could break through to Plei Me. It was down to the wire, but we managed to get our supply trucks to Plei Me. I don't think that would have been possible had we not had our gunships, that ambush was an amazing affair. The North Vietnamese were relentless and well positioned. After we stuck with the Plei Me theme and played the first scenario in the series called "The Lure". This is an excellent scenario for learning how to defend with less. The North Vietnamese aren't too aggressive, but aggressive enough to keep me on my toes. Positions are falling, but I'm still holding the key defences. It's night and I really need to to be daylight!

This turned out to be a really interesting and fun scenario. We were the ARVN doing our best to defend against the North Vietnamese regulars as they probed our camp and slowly started to dismantle the surrounding defences. The scenario is a really good scenario for learning the game with such valuable lessons as; defending and knowing when to counter attack, conducting airstrikes and helicopters operations and their limitations. If you're new to the game, this would be a good one to play after you finish the Bootcamp scenarios, as while it has 30 turns, it is short to play and there is A LOT to learn here.
