I know it is ancient history for you now El Justo, but I have been going about my usual Civ Voodoo practices of playing scenarios years after they are released, so here I am.
I do love this one so far, though I have only played about 8 or 9 turns I think. Playing SV, I didn't see this thread so I have already taken two of the NV cities along the coast by obliterating their defenders with the Navy with a bit of help from the two starting Wild Weasel units. Thought I thought the Pedia on them said they have stealth but I attacked a stack at one point and was not able to pick a target. This was in the open, not a city.
I have cleared all of the VP spots that are not on the western border. VC base units on some of them might have helped them last longer, but the navy gunfire and the massive air power would have destroyed them in the end. I am already getting a decent amount of pressure on the west and from the north though. Even though I did destroy almost all of the infrastructure along the HCMT. I definitely could use more troops, and dealing with the massive unrest is annoying too.
I think you got the right feel here. Digging them out of those foritifed VP spots in the jungles and mountains is hard work. I had a veteran ARVN Ranger go up against a base camp at 1 HP and he got snuffed out, ouch! Though once you capture them and use them yourself it is good of course. I've been steadily connecting cities with the engineers, that has been very helpful.
I would like to use the bigger sound file with the 40 songs that was mentioned in this thread; where can I get it? I have version 1.2 now. The music is just excellent, and I love that Robin Williams bit at the beginning.
