Brown Water Navy - Forces of War Review

Navy SEALS… Gunships… Patrol Boats… Jets… Amphibious Guerrilla Warefare!

So for those of you who have resisted Tour of Duty so far, I might have grabbed your attention with some buzz words, particularly SEALS but keep reading if your one of the people that hasn't got into the Vietnam theatre yet as Brown Water Navy is seriously good!

A lot of my friends don’t play Vietnam games and that might be because of a lack of historical interest in the conflict as we come from a tiny corner of the South of England but I’m hoping to convert a few of you over to this Flames of War expansion.

For those of you who are interested in Vietnam, the lists are on Forces of War, the book is on Flames of War Digital and Wargames Illustrated have done a fun article. Ben even got to see a demonstration copy of Brown Water Navy in Entoyment Store and I wanted to have a look at the lists, rules and why something that should catch your attention, even in the face of other new expansions in 2015.

PAVN Local Forces Company all done (for now!) for Vietnam!

Hi everyone (James here):

A year ago, Ben and I started 1250 point Vietnam army projects and recently we both completed them. If you like ‘Nam then you've probably seen Ben’s Americans and a post I put up at the start of the project as both appeared on the Battlefront website too and can be found here searching under Vietnam tags but I've been lax on doing posts as I've painted so here… is the finished force!

(check out the end of the article for a proposition if you're interested in getting into games of Flames of War Vietnam! I’ll also put up on the Battlefront Forums for Vietnam!)

Snapped at our local store before a game!
