I treated myself to some plastic this afternoon and now I have a box of Rubicon Models' Viet Cong Fighters. Great little models. Once I get them based and painted…then what? Obviously try and game with them, but what Vietnam rules are out there for 28mm scale? Would love to have them do more than collect dust on the shelf!

I just picked up BelloLudi's Kalshnikov, but they have a Vietnam version of the same. Force on Force is good but has some quirky mechanics. I'm sure there are many others I'm not immediately familiar.

Try One Hour Skirmish Wargames

There are new rules that are just coming out from Plastic Soldier Company called 'Nam 68'. They look amazing. Written by Warwick Kinrade. They should be available very soon as print on demand.

Here is a review of the rules if you want to check them out: link

FNG from Two Hour Wargames is my go-to for skirmish level games. I have a set of my own for larger engagements called In Country….

VC on the Trail is a Bolt Action variant worth checking out – has a Facebook Group.

Second vote for force on force. Their source book for Vietnam ( you don't need it to play) is the best reference for tactical Vietnam I have ever found.

Have fun!
