Yeah, should play some Flames of Nam soon. Need to finish detailing up my helos.

Thanks. That will by airplane or beach reading for this year's trip to Thailand.

Somewhere I have a copy of Giac My, an early 1980s miniatures game for the Vietnam War, which I acquired about the time it was published. I don't think that I have ever actually played a game of it. Has anyone played it? Is it worth finding and setting up a game?

I've meant to track down a copy myself; I'd be interested in hearing what you think of the game if you play it.

I really like FoW Vietnam, as far as I'm concerned it's the best of FoW due to the asymmetrical nature of the armies. I only with is was more popular…

I'd forgotten about Giac My. I did play it once, but I don't remember much about it. OTH, 'played it once' kind of tells it's own story. If I've still got it you're welcome to it. I'll have a shufti.

Had a good hunt around for it, but did n't find it, sorry Scott. If it turns up I'll post here.
