An American infantry platoon with random variable attachments must sweep a village in search of the enemy! Beware of booby traps and be careful not to hurt any friendly villagers! The Vietnamese force will be random, so each game should be different. The Guts 'N Glory system is a nice balance of playability and realism. It heaps rewards on the use of good tactics and brutally punishes mistakes! All figures and terrain are provided.
