Courage Under Fire
New from High Flying Dice Games. Courage Under Fire is a low complexity, low counter density game on the assault on An Loc during the North Vietnamese Easter Offensive in 1972. The game uses area movement and interesting chrome such as NVA sappers, variable applications for artillery bombardment and of course airstrikes as the ARVN is hard pressed to duplicate the efforts of the 5th Infantry. The game is easily playable solitaire and short enough to be played more than once in an evening for competitive players. Price: $5.95.
