The retail version of Men of War: Vietnam being released in the British Isles will have five bonus missions, as well as a soundtrack CD, when the game is released on September 16. The soundtrack will probably feature the hard-driving classic rock and roll from the 1960’s.
Men of War: Vietnam is a tactical level real-time strategy game that’s split into two campaigns for each side. The US campaign focuses on elite spec ops soldiers, each with a unique skill and personality, while the North Vietnamese campaign is the story of two Soviet military consultants and their troops who survive a US ambush and are trying to get back into North Vietnam, while being attacked by US and South Vietnamese troops.
