[Kien Long, South Vietnam]: [SIDE A / H2H] [HIS] [CSL]:
Early in 1960, Viet Cong activities had become more prevalent in the Mekong Delta region. It was commonplace for the ARVN military to conduct road clearing and sweeping operations in hopes of catching the Viet Cong in the open. Road sweeping operations typically meant clearing mines and roadblocks for supply traffic to move freely from district to another.
While these were standard affairs, one such operation cumulated into a full-scale ambush by the newly created Viet Cong U Minh Main Force battalion. This battalion would be the bane of the ARVN divisions operating in the area for years to come.
In this case, it is the 2nd Battalion, 31st Infantry Regiment, 21st ARVN Division that would have their teething experience on QL 12 during a road clearing and sweeping operation.

A lack of support for the ARVN from artillery also benefits them.
Still fun to play but a big ask for the ARVN player I would think.
