Fire in the Lake: Insurgency in Vietnam
2014
1–4 Players180 minHeavy
Fire in the Lake drops one to four players into the tangled conflict of the Vietnam War, each controlling one of four asymmetric factions — the US, ARVN, NVA, and Viet Cong — with wildly different capabilities and win conditions. The card-driven COIN system drives events from the Tet Offensive to Linebacker II, pushing players to balance military action with politics, pacification, and the fickle meter of popular opinion. It is the fourth game in GMT s acclaimed COIN Series, designed by Volko Ruhnke and Mark Herman.
