Description

SEE if the "Bombing Cambodia" Campaign would have truly been 'effective', OR perhaps an EXTRA couple 100-thousand 'Troops' might have "done the deal" instead. Here's your chance to "re-write" some gaming 'History', and either rise UP to the 'occasion', or 'go down' through "Defeat in detail" with THIS!
