Re: DienBienPhu- How difficult to convert?
Thanks iCaMp,
Great site, with a bunch of pics I haven't seen before.
Yeah its looking like the only option is to start from scratch, as I finally dug up an old copy of SP3 and installed it, but couldn't get it to run. No short cuts there, it seems!
I have some pretty decent reference maps (Martin Woodrow's, 'The Last Valley' is a particularly good source) and fairly detailed oob's for both the French and VM for the period March-May 1954.
I also have some pics I took of the area last month, but they won't be of much more than general use as the look of the area has changed significantly in the last half century.
I suspect though, that it will be a while before I am able to devote the necessary time to a project of this magnitude.
Heck, its going to take me a fair bit of time to get familar with the tools before I can even get started!
I don't suppose any of the fine scenario designers/mappers here would be interested in taking a shot at putting together a campaign for this?
I would be very pleased to hand over the info I have and take care of any additional research needed, if there were someone keen to handle the nuts and bolts of putting it into the game.
