For all those who game the Vietnam war, or who have wanted to but never found a set of rules you liked, I am very pleased to announce the release of the latest TFL ruleset: Charlie Don't Surf.
Available from the TFL website, along with Surf's Up a companion book of scenarios, I cannot recommend this ruleset highly enough. Not only does it incorporate all the latest TFL game mechanics and tweaks destined for IABSM v3, but it totally and 100% captures the feel of the period. So di di mau to the TFL website and get yourself a copy of this Number Ten Thousand ruleset!
