In part two, you mentioned the Vietnam War period and "Local Knowledge". That perked my ears up because I recently found the Chain of Command DMZ, the unofficial Vietnam War supplement. Your jungle table in the Malaya series was great looking. Have you considered painting NVA and US Vietnam War era platoons? Thank you.

[@StormofSteelWargaming]

I am not aware of the DMZ supplement, but I will have a look into it. Interestingly over on Twitter this morning we were chatting about Charlie Don't Surf and Bodycount, an old set of rules I used to play for Vietnam. So I have Vietnam in my wargaming history, and I could be persuaded to turn my attention back to it quite easily, I think. However, current project is Sharp Practice, but never say never with Vietnam....

In my world most games are played on a 6ft by 88ft table ,however at the club we have access to a 12 by 6 table! We love Big games

[@eddiepennington345]

I meant 6 by 8 table

[@StormofSteelWargaming]

Good for you

[@SpringfieldFatts]

What were the chits you were using in the Blucher shot for?

[@StormofSteelWargaming]

I'm not sure which shot you mean? Can you let me know the time stamp?

[@SpringfieldFatts]

@@StormofSteelWargaming 3:04, I assume it's a solo alternative to the momentum dice.

[@StormofSteelWargaming]

@@SpringfieldFatts ah yes, exactly that. If you find the Waterloo refight video, there is an explanation of how I used them.

[@eddiepennington345]

Wargaming is Chess with a thousand moves!

[@StormofSteelWargaming]

Hmm, chess has millions of potential moves.

[@eddiepennington345]

Games using cards o'r dice draws give a very artificial method of time passage

[@StormofSteelWargaming]

Well, that's just, like, your opinion, man.
