📖 About This Game
[Vae Victis issue 33] "Dien Bien Phu 1954" is a two-player Operational level board-wargame that covers the Siege of Dien Bien Phu from March 13 to May 7 1954 at one week per turn. This system is reasonably innovative, combining aspects of Point-to-Point and Area Movement to depict the varying uses and natures of the human and natural terrain of the siege.
This Vae Victis issue also includes some errata counters for Vae Victis issue 32.
As with all Vae Victis wargames, the counters need to be cut out and mounted. The rules are entirely in French, although translations are available online.
