Do they exist? I've gone through a lot of rule sets lately and they all seem very complicated. I'm looking for something quick and easy for high school students that I can use with some cheap 10mm figures. |

What level? Skirmishes with players commanding a squad? Or bigger battles where they control a platoon or company? |

I was hoping for platoon or company level. |

Go to the Junior General website. juniorgeneral.org You will find a scenario for the Battle of Ia Drang 1065. It even has files for paper soldiers if you are lacking miniatures. All Free. |

Delta to DMZ is battalion level, if that is any use. |

Flames of War is actually pretty simple but "feels" like Vietnam (at least the Vietnam of the movies). Particularly when one side runs the Air Cav list. Using 10mm or 6mm minis will help some of the "tank parking lot" (or in the case of Vietnam, helo parking lot) issues that arise because of the severe distortion between figure scale and ground scale. (Pistol range is 4", and the helos are about 8" long!) |
