Description

A squad-level, tactical game, 65 recounts the early battles of the Vietnam War, from Ia Drang to Operation Starlight, and most everything between. The large and beautiful counters (1" to 1.375" square) represent squads, Leaders, Heroes, Snipers, M-48 and Pt-76 tanks, and more. As these units commander you will move and fight over three geomorphic game boards as you try to best your opponent in one of eight, nail-biting historical scenarios. The game is card-driven, using a system similar to Flying Pig s Night of Man, which adds a sense of delicious uncertainty to the play. Can I advance my sappers or does the enemy have a fire card he's just waiting to play?" Furthermore, the cards simplify the game, containing much of the data needed to play. You won t spend the afternoon with your head in a rule book when you play 65. This is a game created by gamers for gamers to play. Each Game Includes: 3 richly illustrated, 11 x 17 geomorphic game boards. Over 175 HUGE 1 and 1.375 counters. 1 deck of 54 action cards. Full color rules and scenario booklet.
