Its clear that the original maker put in a lot of work and research, so being able to make use of this info would be much easier than starting from scratch.
Yes, there are a couple of Indochina themed scenarios, but strangely none dealing with the main actions around DienBienPhu.
Considering the size, historical importance, and sheer drama of this battle, I'm really surprised that it hasn't been dealt with in the game.

If you can get ahold of "Steel Panthers World at War" there is a DienBienPhu campaign in it (tho it's really just a few linked battles rather then a campaign).
