I was recently introduced to a cold war table top game and loved it and I am looking for a set of rules for a Vietnam war table top game and was wondering if anyone can point me in the direction of any good rule sets for small-large games?

Too fat lardies have a set, called Charlie don't surf or something like. Haven't played that one but the lardies put out excellent games!

If you are interested I have a box of 40 x 20mm USMC and a box of 50 x 20mm VC which I have never got round to painting. That Ambush Valley looks pretty good.

Thanks Martin They are Pegasus 7401 and Revell 02526. They are only cheap plastics but you could probably get most of a platoon out of each. If you can put them to good use you can have them. I used to play a lot of 20mm WW2 and sometimes saw sale bargains for other era boxes. I can't see that I'll ever get around to putting them to use so I'll bring them in on Thursday if you are about.
