    • Good Morning, Vietnam!

      Good Morning, Vietnam!

      An alternate scenario to be played with Axis & Allies pieces and similar rules.

      Development Notes:
      v0.1:

      • Map done and first draft of rules almost complete.
      • Some playtesting done.
        Need to:
      • Refine Political Situation
      • Define setup
      • Further playtesting
      • Need to upload Infiltration board
      • Define victory conditions

      Map can be found here: (https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B7x1PKfqsr0lYXRtZC1wUVlaYnM/edit?usp=sharing). Rules writeup to follow.

      Practical Notes:
      For game pieces, I use the following to represent each faction:
      North Vietnamese Army: Russian units
      US: US units
      Viet Cong: Japanese units
      South Vietnamese: British units

      I also purchased the �New World Order� set from Table Tactics (http://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/10169/new-world-order-axis-allies-variant), and I use the helicopters and jets for this game.

      This game utilizes a system of unit hiding for the NVA that may be a bit confusing at first. I use a separate rectangular board, hidden by a privacy screen, with squares coded to zones on the map. NVA and VC forces are placed on this map when they �Infiltrate.� This way, the U.S. has no idea where the enemy is unless they are revealed through reconnaissance or patrols.

      In my game, I also made little pieces that represent the level of jungle in a zone (see below) by hot-gluing fake foliage for model train tables to cardboard pieces. Completely unnecessary to play the game, but it definitely looks cool.

    • RE: Nation- (and City-) Specific Victory City Markers

      @Yavid:

      the other question is how do i order a set?

      They will be available on Shapeways.com. For now, you’ll have to order each city individually.

      So…A question for you all. Should I make the cities I’ve already uploaded available for sale now? Or should I wait until all of the minor cities are completed?

      Thanks again to all of you for the interest and encouragement!

      @John:

      @ossel:

      Forgot the pic.

      That is awesome! I can’t wait for these to grace my new metal map! 😄

      Will these come in different colors?

      Unfortunately, it’s looking like white and clear (for detail plastic) will be the only colors available directly from Shapeways, however these should be fairly simple to paint. I’ll try to throw some paint on one of mine and see how it comes out.

      Here’s another shot of the London marker on the actual board. I personally think it looks great.

      Thank you again to all of those who helped me research and provided input for these markers. I hope to finish up the remaining cities so you all can have a complete set.

      I hope to make these available for sale very soon!

      **City: Warsaw

      Material: Detail Plastic.

      Notes: This one was pretty amazing quality; my camera couldn’t even pick up a lot of the detail.**

      **City: Rome

      Material: Metallic Plastic.

      Notes: I ordered one piece in this material to see how it would come out, I wasn’t pleased with the level of detail, so I won’t be offering this material for sale.**
