I think there are a coule vietnam scenarios on the Apolyton site. You might be able to use an existing map. Not sure how you feel about doing that but you could give credit to the original map maker.
I'd like to help. I have been looking at other scenarios and I have been making mods for my own use. I have never created a scenario from scratch though.

My advice had nothing to do with finding a map, but i do suggest using test of time to make it. You can have 2 "worlds", with one being the tunnels. Also US and S. Vietnamese troops can be forbidden to "world-travel" so only the VC can use them. Would make for a great scenario. Unfortunately, I have no clue how to use ToT for scenario making, so..... But if you can pull it off, you would have possibly the best vietnam scenario to date.

I've got plenty of ideas. I'm also working on a 'Nam scenario, but I probably won't finish or something because I don't have mush time for it. Here are some units:
1. PBR, trireme rule, carry maybe 1-2 unit(s)For this unit, i suggest you make a lot of your rivers squares oceans so they can travel the rivers, like they really did
2. SEALs, just rig up some cool commando that can make amphibious assaults, paradrops, 2 vision range, pikemen rule, alpine, or something cool like that
3. Green Beret, same as SEALs, cost less, cant do amphibious
4. Viet Cong, destroyed after attacking, high att, low def., alpine movement
5. Nung Warriors, cheap form of soldier (in comparison, like an archer compared to a riflemen)
the rest are air units
6. Huey helicopter
7. cobra attck helicopter
8. F-4 Phantom
9. MiG17 Fresco
10. MiG21 Fishbed
11. C-130 Hercules(used for support)
12. napalm (a missile unit)
13. F-14 Tomcat (i think they were used at the end of the war)
I suggest you make all sides different tech trees, considering it would be wierd to see a N.V.A. SEAL
Here's a site with a map of vietnam during the war(1970). it shows language though, but it has the correct borders, etc. http://www.lib.utexas.edu/Libs/PCL/Map_collection/asia.html

Here's the thing, i've never made a scenario before and don't know jack about making a scenario and i'd like someone to teach me.
I think it's time that a good vietnam war scenario get made.
Like in B.Stein's Vietnam scenario it's alright but you know the production sucks in the cities and the americans cannot get an army to fight the viet cong and vietminh with. And they don't have a navy.
I finished it doing good, i invaded Cambodia and took Penh Phen but lost Hue and i took the most southern of vietnam.
There's another Nam scenario that i like but the map isn't flat its round!
Nice thinking dumb a**
Squirrel you wanna join forces and make a Nam scenario to blow some peoples minds?

I plan on giving the US a better production than these 'other' Nam scenarios have given them, since the time table isn't that long.
Every unit that was used will be allowed to be made, you will have a navy

Sorry Sun, totally forgot this post.
Well back to the subject, one of the US great victory over this f** commies was at "Khe Sanh" (something like Green Hole). The Viet Congs tried to do a remake of Dien Bien Phu. Pfff...
It'd be also interesting to include missions on the Ho Chi Minh track bombings. That should be fun

I can't believe my eyes! SunTzu is making a scenario!?
HEY! TF! You forgot me! I'm helping! I'm doing:
Advance Icons (If SunTzu likes 'em.)
Events (I'll need SunTzu's and GenghisK's help)
Unit placement
Text editing (Labels, game.txt, etc.)

...)
