Buckle for your Dust - Vietnam Wargame Rules, 1965-73

Written by Greg McCauley, 1995 (retailing at £ 8.00. Glossy full colour card cover in A4 format. About 60 pp. with many b/w diagrams, tables and illustrations. ISBN: 0-9521488 2 X)

Includes full details and rules for playing the game with miniatures, as well as copious details of the soldiers, weapons, aircraft &c., and notes on how to construct realistic scenarios with a 'maximum frustration factor' for Freeworld players who have all the firepower but have not necessarily won all the hearts and minds, just yet.

Came second in Robert L Haworth's review of six available Vietnam rule sets in the Midwest Wargamer's Association Newsletter (MWAN) #89, Sept-Oct '97. Haworth particularly praised the supporting text (historical details) and said 'The Rules of Engagement (ROE) subsystem is top-notch, illustrating the game's deliberate and welcome focus on "the human factor" instead of technology'.

Also includes:

      a simplified 'one brain cell' set of rules by Andy Callan

      a set of rules for riverine operations by Paddy Griffith
