Lock 'n Load Tactical: Heroes of the Nam

A squad-level tactical wargame set in Vietnam and surrounding conflicts. Players command ARVN, U.S., Australian and New Zealand forces against North Vietnamese Army and Viet Cong units, using infantry squads supported by Leaders, specialized personnel (snipers, medics, Corpsmen, chaplains, advisors), and armored assets such as helicopters, tanks, and APCs. Gameplay uses a fast-paced impulse system where players activate units in pulses, resolve firefights, conduct assaults in jungle and urban terrain, and employ unique Hero characters whose abilities can shift engagements. The boxed game includes over 25 scenarios and revised components and rules from earlier editions.
