No tanks for NVA ever??? New picklist anyone?

Try April 1975 ( that what I tried first so results may vary )

NVA assualt against SVN. I had my points set to 7000 for SVN so the AI NVA would have approx 17500. LOTS of tanks. PT-76's, T55's, T-34's, Type 59's..... the whole works

NVA didn't play with tanks much until the final push but I just tried May 1973 with the same opponents and points and got the same results. Tanks up the wazoo ( for Vietnam...). I don't think the picklist is set up to give many tanks ( if any ) until the end of the war

Ok Don, in reality NVA used tanks more 1975 but still I don't understand why AI don't pick *even* 1 PT-76/BTR before April 1975??? It could add bit "surprise factor" into battles. Those sources what I have seen, NVA used tanks (more or less) during wartime. Now you can suppose that you will get about zillion units of infantry (mostly) every time as you play Vietnam era... Unless you pick those NVA units yourself (and forget "surprise" thing). Maybe I'm played BF:Vietnam too much

?

Hopefully Laurent will make his Viet War Pack (with tanks of course

) into this great game...
