Decent tactical warfare treatment for infantry, but the abstracted fire support leaves something to be desired. I suppose it's all you can expect for sixteen pages of rules.

Lovely counters and maps. Nice economical rule set that focuses on the importance of small unit / fire team leadership to keep momentum. The bucket of dice combat resolution captures the feel of troops "pouring it on" against an enemy position. Simple and effective off map support process. Would scale easily to Falklands / Fallujah scenarios. I liked this so much I embedded in an Excel solitaire tool.

Bloody fighting in Vietnam and Afghanistan. I enjoyed both battles but not much replayability.
