Tet Offensive — House by House, Room by Room
The most intense urban combat of the Vietnam War. The ancient Imperial Citadel of Hue dominates the board — its massive stone walls and moat surrounding the inner city. The Perfume River divides the old city from the modern south bank. NVA flags fly from the citadel walls. Marines and Army troops fight through narrow streets, advancing building by building through a city of temples, palaces, and concrete government buildings. The Nguyen Dynasty throne room sits inside the citadel walls, its ornate architecture contrasting with the devastation around it. This is urban warfare at its most brutal and beautiful.
