Meeples and Miniatures Episode 11 - Good Morning Vietnam! - a podcast by Neil Shuck aka Earthquake

Since I've now reached show #11, I thought that I'd better introduce a little more order into the show. Therefore, I have now divided the show into several sections:

Rumblings - I discuss anything that has recently caught my attention in the world of boardgames and miniature wargames.

Boardgame Ballyhoo - I review a boardgame that I have recently played

Wargames Rules Ruminations - I review one or more sets of rules for wargaming with miniatures. This is usually themed for a particular period/genre each week.

Musings about Miniatures - I review a range of figures. These are usually figures that can be used with the rules reviewed in the 'Ruminations' section of the show.

 

In this, episode 11 of the Meeples & Miniatures podcast, the main topic is wargaming the Vietnam war. I discuss two rulesets for gaming the conflict: "Charlie Company" & "FNG", and then review what miniatures can be used to game this conflict in 28mm.
