Woohoo, congrats on getting a subforum home of your very own. Good luck with this one.

I really don't like Vietnam stuff, so doubt I'll get this one but look forward to future additions to the series. Will any engine upgrades (if any) from Vietnam for CSME be available via a patch or paid upgrade?

For those of you who're interested about the long French involvement, including less known facts about how many combat drops they did during the conflict, I collected studies, monographs and interesting artciels aplenty at my humble HKL Blog.

Yup. I try to debunk the myth, that the French were 'cheese eating surrender monkeys'. Here's a bonus and see for yourself how many combat drop the French did. An eye opener.

This looks like an interesting game...
But no T-55s to attack Khe Sahn...
Okay -- seriously -- this looks interesting... keeping an eye on this one.

Thank you for your support, tjhkkr

We are striving for historical accuracy, so it is highly unlikely you'll see T-55's at Khe Sahn. You will see some PT-76's at Lang Vei though!

You can expect to see some T-54's at An Loc in 1972!

[*] Our Dev team home, lots of articles there. Unfortunately the current host is quite slow, we're migrating to a new WordPress host in the coming months. Thank you for your patience!

We've now completed the physical migration over to SiteGround servers, and are super happy how fast and responsive the site is now!

However, as always, there's some glitches, with many of the picture links not working with older blog posts. We are updating each blog entry over the coming weeks.

Again, thank you for your patience, we will get there! Being at the new host alone is already hugely encouraging [:)]

As of yesterdays Campaign Series Weekly Digest, we changed our email content to include full posts, instead of excerpts + links to our site as how it was previously.

Latest Digest here:

https://us17.campaign-archive.com/?e=16 ... 3b3e6ae836

What do you think? Better this way, with no need to click links for content?

Things are in a move, and

CSLegion.com has a new look and feel: https://cslegion.com

The most obvious change is the home page.

[*] First a set of randomly picked blog posts in a carousel. Which is great imho! There's quite a lot of content, have forgotten half the posts we've put are there. Fun to reload the page and see what appears there the next time.
[*] Then our three games introduced
[*] Join our mailing list ad next
[*] Latests blogs, and finally
[*] Then a teaser for our gallery.

Have a look! What do you think?

Oh Vietnam! How I love Vietnam!

We need more Vietnam games. I love the powerful US Army contesting the jungles against the sneaky, dangerous enemy.

I hope you can include the French Indochina war too. If you need info about their heroic campaign, don't miss the book "Street Without Joy".
The French had many battles where they were surrounded and overwhelmed by massed communist troops, especially on the roads when they were ambushed and used impressive tactics and army organization to fight their way out of the ambushes. They did a lot of defensive actions against massive attacks too.

Yes, the Indochina War is included, too. [:)]

At the moment I am working with the Events Engine in having David Galster’s ten (10) scenarios covering Dien Bien Phu to properly come alive

Laos’ secret war is included too. But yes! Some very intriguing US battles depicted there too! Of course!
