Fire Mission!

So, the bug has bitten me, and I am running 2 sessions of RECON next week. Here is FSB: Orion, which will be the home of the Marines in the game. The players will be members of 1st Platoon Bravo Co. 1st Bn / 9th Marines (The Walking Dead). This is a quickly done map on paint. It ain't pretty but it works.

Incoming!

Like the new season rolling in, my ADD gamer brain has turned its attention to Vietnam or military rpg. I am currently reading Matterhorn by Karl Marlantes, a novel about Marines in Vietnam. Being a lover of military history - especially the Vietnam era (and a former Marine to boot), my brain screams at me - Run A Game About Vietnam!. So I oblige my brain for the moment and drag my old Palladium Recon & Advanced Recon out of the basement (along with a game called Ranger - which is a solo game of patrolling). 



Next, I go ahead and make a map for an AO (area of operations) with 3 firebases in a fictional map of Vietnam.


So, if the mood strikes, at least I am prepared to do something about it...
