I have played Bodycount but never played Charlie Company. I have heard Charlie Company described and it sounds very like Bodycount. Can anyone who has played both describe the differences please? |

I haven't played either game, so I looked up Charlie Company and found a great review of the game at grunt.redux.atspace.eu. The guy reviewing it played an earlier version since 1986. Wow! I also play Vietnam Conflict games and have used Iron Ivan's rules -The Long Road South. I have also played Two Hour Wargame's rules- FUBAR. Both games are fast to play, easy to learn but with a huge amount of Vietnam War flavor. I recommend both (to complicate your rules search). Good gaming! |

Two Hour's game is Fng. Fubar is a free rule set by Craig Cartnell. Thanks. John |

Mark, I think those reviews are broken. The Bodycount one leads to a review of Shako, Charlie Company looks accurate up to game mechanics, where it turns into a Napoleonic set. |
