This battle signaled the beginning of the end for the French Colonial Empire and the first steps towards independence for Vietnam.\u003cbr\u003e​\u003cbr\u003eYou will assume the role of Colonel Christian de La Croix de Castries, Commander of Dien Bien Phu’s garrison. You are besieged by five Viet Minh Divisions under General Võ Nguyên Giáp.\u003cbr\u003e​\u003cbr\u003eThe French gamble to establish an air and land base deep in enemy territory in order to draw the Viet Minh into a decisive battle and destroy them with superior French firepower has badly backfired. You are now encircled, outnumbered and outgunned. You will need to carefully manage supplies, skillfully use your elite units as well as your air, armor and artillery assets while keeping the garrison’s morale high in order to hold out as long as possible. All of this in the face of adverse events and relentless Viet Minh Assaults while hoping that your resistance will have a favorable and decisive impact on the 1954 Geneva Conference peace talks.\u003cbr\u003e​\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGame Components\u003cbr\u003e1 22\" x 34\" Full Color Map \u003cbr\u003e120 Double-Sided 5-8\" Counters and Markers\u003cbr\u003e45 Event Cards (Card Deck)\u003cbr\u003e1 16- Page Rule Book \u003cbr\u003e6 Double-Sided Player Aid Cards\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e-description from publisher's website\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"White Dog Games","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":32031362383923,"sku":"32031362383923","price":75.89,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/www.booyakajuice.com\/s\/files\/1\/0274\/9631\/products\/pic5363333.png?v=1589319054","url":"https:\/\/www.booyakajuice.com\/products\/the-lost-valley-the-siege-of-dien-bien-phu","provider":"booyakajuice","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
