SGS Battle For: Hue

The massive number of units, combined with the game's stack activation system, means you have massive stacks with like ten units of each type per stack. And units range in size from the company down to the section. So be prepared to move lots of units. Some players will like this; some won't. The video tutorials are garbage - apparently recorded by some "gamer bro" with an obnoxious accent, mumbling incomprehensible mish-mash while eating and listening to the radio. Good luck understanding them. I could pull better tutorials out of my butt - at least they'd be well thought out and properly recorded and legible. If the subject matter interests you, pick this up on sale. but you may have to just start playing the game to figure out how it works, rather than rely on the flawed tutorials.

I am very much enjoying the game—it's a great way to learn about the Vietnam War and the Tet Offensive.

works for me. wife was living in Hue during this battle. old town by left most bridge. semper fi.

This game appears to be unplayable vs the "AI" (actually a "PO"--Programmed Opponent--nothing intelligent about it, especially in this case). Huge stacks of PO units sat in off-map boxes without attempting to move and initiate what happened historically. Perhaps PvP makes this viable but I prefer games that can at least be played solitaire. It's a shame as this game displays some excellent historical research and game dynamics, albeit a very cluttered unit play at times. The unit artwork is also superb and the map excellent, but of course with SGS games you can expect sparse detailed rules, player advice or historical notes. It took me over 2 hours to uncover the depths of this "AI" flaw and because of this 2 hour limit I was denied a refund.

80 units stack vs 90 units stack? Guys, this is too much, even for my autism. Now imagine normal people seeing this. Stop it. Get some help
