VCO campaign opponent

There's not a great choice; Boonie Rats feels lousy for the NLF/COSVN player, no penalties for Cambodian and Laotian incursions and what's the worst the map size combined with the units number allows the MACV player for creating an impenetrable continuos frontline along the whole of the RVN border, surround and destroy completely any enemy groupings encountered, shore up the guerrilla activity in-country completely then and win the scenario decisively round '66. I definitely don't reccomend. Vietnam '65 - '68 does not obviously cover the entire war, but sports a much better map. However, it seems that the way the scenario plays out is very loosely connected with both sides' activities and success or failures in the theater; the ARVN seem to have a relatively high proficiency, they are higly mobile, possess lots of airlift which weren't the cases historically so that's a setback from the start if one wishes to fight the Vietnam War with more or less approximate historic settings. There are a lot of theater options, but sometimes it's hard to say what a certain thing is all about at all and try to predict what You would get on choosing it.
I think that CSV '65 - '75 is way ahead in that particular league.
