Deep in the Bush
Dinky Dau delivers high-intensity skirmish combat in the steaming jungles, rice paddies, and hilltops of the Vietnam War. Squad leaders must manage line of sight, suppressive fire, and the psychological strain of jungle patrol warfare.
Asymmetric Tactical Elements
- Hidden Setup & Blips: The opposing force deploys hidden marker tokens that could be false alarms, decoy positions, or an entrenched squad with an RPG.
- Fire Support & LZ Insertion: Coordinate mortar coordinates, call in smoke markers for Huey medevacs, and hold perimeter defense under heavy fire.
- Tunnel Complexes & Traps: Navigate hidden spider holes, punji stakes, and concealed ambush corridors.
