The ambuscade results in pinning the US platoon and wounded two teams.
Turn 1
Gunships arrive from reserve and the second rifle platoon is airlifted into the LZ area (called "the hill"). The platoon unpins and the medic fail to remove one wound marker, killing the team in the process. Combined fire from helicopters kills the PAVN company and it fails it morale and counts as destroyed for morale purposes (Score 1-0).
One Vietnamese reserve arrive (local force is chosen). Guerilla reserve rule this time result in the company being able to ambush close to the US platoon. Shooting (with rifles) results in the medic being killed and another wound marker.
Turn 2
The US Platoon at the Hill unload their transports. The other platoon fights off the local force with a torrent of fire, killing most of the squad with the rifle platoon and the gunships. It pass its morale test.
Two PAVN companies arrive from Guerilla reserve accompanied by a HMG nest. One arrives to support the local force, while the other takes on the hill platoon. A few RPGs are fired at the gunship but fail to destroy it. The Vietnamese tries to assault the hill, but defensive fire pin back the assault.
Turn 3
The last US platoon, the mortars arrive to the battlefield. The gunships destroys the Vietnamese company that tried to shot them down last turn together with most of the local force company (score 2-0).
Now the special task force and the AA guns arrive from reserve. The AA guns opens up on the closest pink team, shooting down the Loach. The special task force flamer kills two teams at the hill.
Turn 4
With the mortars finally in place the hill has turned into a bloody fortress. The mortars and the surviving Loach destroys the AA-platoon (score 3-0). The intact pink team open up on the PAVN company at the hill, resulting in a bunch of dead Vietnamese.
A volley fire from the special task force hits the Loach helicopter in the other Pink team and destroys it. Another attempt is made to storm the hill, but defensive fire from rifles and mortars proves to much and destroys the PAVN company (score 4-0). The other US platoon is assaulted by the local force, who kills the CiC and destroys the LMGs when the US breaks off. They are however destroyed in the process and it fails it morale and counts as destroyed for morale purposes (score 5-0).
Turn 5
Things is looking messy for the US. The platoon at the Vietnamese objective lost all its leaders and digs in. The platoons on the hill does the same, and they all hide to benefit from gone to ground.
The destroyed PAVN company returns, this time in perfect position at the Vietnamese objective.The local force also finds its way back, this time in position to assault the hill. They do however not attempt to assault, due to the unpinned platoon having to much defensive fire. At the Vietnamese objective the old PAVN company assaults the remaining teams, forcing a break off into the new PAVN company, destroying the US rifle platoon (score 5-1).
Turn 6
US forces tries to kill the platoon holding the objective, but 10 hits from the helicopters results in only 1 dead Vietnamese team. Shooting at the hill proves ineffective and the battle is lost for the free world.
The Vietnamese secures the objective, with 5 losses against 1.
