I really liked the look of this...but footprint

I doubt I'll ever be able to get a Vietnam game that fits my space

You got the game?  Last I checked it was still "at the printers". 

I've been eyeing this game ever since it went P500 but to be honest with all the supply chain crisis and GMT's terrible track record of making deliveries fast once a game becomes available have shied me away.

I don't have it.

As noted at the link above, it was Jim Werbaneth that provided the photos for us and he got his copy about a day or so before the last #UnboxingDay  :cowboy:

Oh I see.  Thanks.  When I saw this thread I was in the middle of working at the office so I had to quickly read and reply.  Hence me missing that point. 

In any event I'm really excited about this game and although I don't have a table (yet) big enough to handle it I want this game.  Haha!

I'm excited to give it a whirl one day, but more specifically, I'm excited to give someone else's copy a whirl ;D

My copy came in a few weeks ago.

As I also got Pacific War and Salerno '43 in the same shipment, this game is last in my queue of these three new games that I plan to get to the table.

I would freaking love to have this game - but it's simply too big.

Same. I already have Hearts and Minds and that's a bit more my speed - smaller and manageable.
