Fall of Saigon (0.75)
For BTS 3.19
Conquer Saigon as the North Vietnamese, or defend "freedom and peace" in South-East asia as South Vietnam.
Note to players: I recommend playing as the South Vietnamese, as when playing with the North Vietnam, you can take the entire country in five turns. North Vietnamese have a massive army, which is 3-4 times larger than the South Vietnamese army. I’ve also included Better AI Mod 1.01 into this build, and I’m planning on keeping it. But in my opinion, the AI still does stupid moves (like garrisoning Saigon with two F-5’s and an Artillery). Most of the Scenario is not based on historical facts. That was also limited because of the AI in Civ IV. South Vietnamese have a bigger area than they had in 1975, for gameplay purposes. The Final push starts in January, instead of April.
This mod is in 0.75, and i'm planning to update it to 1.0 in a few months. It's not finished yet, but it's playable.
