Fire in the Lake: Insurgency in Vietnam

Fire in the Lake: Insurgency in Vietnam is a board game that drops players into the political and military struggle for South Vietnam through a tense, multi-faction COIN experience.

Players take command of the United States, North Vietnam, the Republic of Vietnam, or the Viet Cong, each with sharply different strengths, goals, and pressures. Card-driven play blends military operations with politics, pacification, infiltration, media pressure, and shifting alliances, so every decision affects both the battlefield and the broader war. The design supports solitaire, 2-player, 3-player, and 4-player games, with flow charts to run any faction not controlled by a player. This third printing is identical to the second printing except for corrected errata. Available now at Boarding School Games—Command the struggle for Vietnam.
