1 VIETNAM ARMY LISTS The format focuses on battalion and smaller, since that is the focus of the rules. Comments on equipment at the squad level have also been omitted unless it affects the rating of a unit. All units are part of Divisional or Brigade level units with further in direct support available at that level. Sqd = Squad (movement stands) HQ = (Command movement stand) some will have more than one squad or vehicle allowed which are treated as separate movement elements. Plt = Platoon or platoons Co = Company or companies FT = Flamethrower M60 = Squad machine gun Sec = Security HQ/CMD = Headquarters/Command RR = Recoilless Rifle (vs Inf/Vehicles/Bunkers) Unit Type FP Unit Type FP Vehicle Unit FP HQ/Cmd SQD 2 US Recon 3 Jeep w/ M60 or 50 cal 5 Sec/Admin 3 ARVN Inf 3 LRRP Sqd 4 ARVN Rngr 4 60/81mm mortar 2/+2 ARVN Abrn 4 M551 Sheridan mortar 2/+2 VC Inf 3 M41 Walker Bulldog 6 M60 MG 5 NVA Inf 4 M48A3 Patton 6 Engr/FT Sqd 4 VC Eng/Scout 4 M113 w/ 50cal +1/5 Radar Crew 3 NVA Scout 4 M55 w/ Quad 50cal 6 Infantry Sqd 4 M106/125 mortar + 50cal +1/6 Marine Wea Sqd mm RR 2/4 Marine Sqd 5 80mm+ RR 2/5 Available Attachments are those units which can be attached to battalions for specific operations.
