Do you have any Naval assets that can provide support offshore near the DMZ?

US Turn 13 I Corps AO

A combination or Airpower Arty and ground units have destroyed the trapped NVA in Quang Tri province, This is a good outcome for the US forces and proves that combined arms used effectively can destroy powerfull NVA units for few losses

Yeah the 7th Fleets Task force 11.5 but the range of most of the ships is limited, destroyers are range 2 Light cruisers are range 3 and my one missile cruiser is range 5 so I don't think there will be much hitting power at long range.

US Turn 14 January 1966

So the conflict rolls on into another year no more US ground units are called up although ive got a feeling that I will have to call up some Arty and some more infantry as the NVA seem intent on invading Quang Tri province, The two US Brigades ive got there 5th Mech and 11th ACR will have to stay put to deal with the NVA threat

It doesn't look like the computer opponent is doing a good job.

US Turn 14 January 1966

US and ARVN forces conduct search and destroy missions in Vinh Binh and Kien Hoa provinces two VC battalions are eliminated, It seems that every time you kill one VC another shows up, IV Corps AO is proving to be a real hotbed of VC activity

US Turn 15 February 1966

With the constant threat of the NVA in I Corps AO ive decided to call up the US 1st Infantry Division +3 to the EEV and the Artilery Group +2 to the EEV to provide firepower for the ground troops and cut down on losses of assault squads, I will most likely request replacements as the US ground forces in Quang Tri province all at about a third of there assault squad strenth.

US Turn 15 February 1966

I Corps AO The US 7th Fleet bombards the NVA 308th HQ i need to reduce there Arty threat, The US have sent 3 Arty regiments to beef up the us forces in Quang Tri including a number of M110 and M109 and M107s this should significantly increase US firepower.

Thanks to your wonderful AAR I'm really looking forward to playing this scenario. Unfortunately, apart from the first few turns, I don't want to know too much so I'll avoid any more of your posts until I have played the scenario myself. After that I will be sure to take a look to see how you got on.

Cheers,
Chris

US Turn 16 March 1966

I Corps AO There has been lots of NVA activity and it seems that charlie has realy stepped up his operations, To counter this the US Arty is going to work to cause as much damage as possible to the NVA, I think some more ground troops are needed in this area.

US Turn 16 March 1966

II Corps AO This area of operations has been quiet so far but there are signs that the VC are emerging from jungle hideouts and terrorising the local population, The ARVN 23rd Division is at hand to deal with this VC threat, there are no US forces in this area at the moment.

US Turn 16 March 1966

IV Corps AO Again there are multiple VC operations in Sa Dec, Chuong Thien, Vinh Binh and Chau Doc provinces, Troops from the ARVN 9th and 23rd Divisions plus the US 12th Aviation Group manage to search and destroy four VC units , There are not enough troops in IV Corps AO two ARVN Divisions two Ranger battalions plus some ARVN paras (in reorg)are too far apart to control this vast region i will need to supplement the US forces in this region (12th Aviation) with additional units before this year is over.
