Hello everyone,

We are seeking opinions and feedback from gamers to select which additional types of miniatures are to be ADDED to “The War in Vietnam” game that is up on Kickstarter right now.

The War in Vietnam is already 1/3 funded in just over a week, so the creator (that’s me) and the designer would like to include even more sculpts in the game for free! (in addition to the 800+ the game already offers.) Please let us know your preferences.

Poll Rules: Anybody here on A&A.org can vote (even if you’re not pledging to get any game), and you can select up to seven (7) choices that you think would be neat additions. Remember, these will be added to the game’s 800+ miniatures free for backers of the campaign.

Suggestions: If you are unfamiliar with any of the miniatures we’ve listed for this poll, we encourage you to read about them on Wikipedia or so (All miniatures are historic, of course.) Besides learning some interesting things along the way, you may decide that something is really cool that you hadn’t considered.

Results: The poll will run for one week, but you can see the results as the poll goes along if you vote! You may also change your mind and change your votes if you wish (after, perhaps, you’ve read more about this or that helicopter or tank or whatever), and you can change your votes as many times as you’d like. After this poll is finished, we’ll do another poll (Round Two) to see who the finalists are! (which gives you another chance to modify your votes based on what wins Round One).  8-)

Thanks for your feedback,
Eric

Righteous! That’s great!

Note that because the Kickstarter for this Vietnam game is already doing so well, there’s going to be a poll in the next day or so giving people a chance to vote on what kind of additional miniatures to add!!!

Stay tuned; I’ll post the poll link here when it’s up.

:-D

Over on Kickstarter.com, there’s an Axis & Allies type game for the Vietnam War. 800 Vietnam War miniatures. The name of the game is The War in Vietnam if you want to find it.

As the story goes, the designer is a West Pointer that approached Larry Harris last year about producing it, but Larry was involved with War Room so he couldn’t take it on at that time and suggested pitching it to other venues.

I thought I’d share this with anyone who might be interested:

Last year some time, I found out that a West Point graduate (Neil Willis, US Army) who is an authority on the Vietnam War had designed an Axis & Allies-style Vietnam game and offered to collaborate with Larry Harris on producing it.

Well, Larry explained that he was involved with War Room at just that time and couldn’t take on another project, but he offered Neil his blessing. So, it looked like a once-in-a-lifetime chance to see a Vietnam Axis & Allies type game (a serious one) was gone, but it is actually now listed on Kickstarter for the next couple weeks, in case anyone is interested. The game offers 800 miniatures!

The name of the game is The War in Vietnam. You have to go to kickstarter.com to find it.
