As you know, we are working on many custom maps for BFV. We wanted to spotlight some of our work for you during the development stage. You can visit our Photo Gallery to see more screenshots from this and other custom maps.
Todays spotlight is on Guadalnam. Here is the intel we have on this map. Note the black air vehicles.
They say the battle for Guadalnam did not actually happen. At least, that is what they would have you believe.
Public perception of the Vietnam War was a major issue for US politicians. The NVA knew this and wanted to do something that would make it even harder for the US to continue fighting in Vietnam.
The NVA knew if they could take the war to the US, it would have a drastic effect on the US public. As part of the Tet Offensive, they took a play from the Japanese playbook during WWII. They set up operations on Guadalcanal, with the intent of attacking Hawaii.
Due to the delicate nature of this battle, the US decided to keep this operation as quiet as possible. Headed by the CIA, a group of special elite forces attacked the NVA on Guadalcanal with one goal; to take back the island and stop any offensive against the US outside of Vietnam.
