The reason why is because that war in particular was the worst in American history (other than the Civil War). Also, I know someone whowas special forces in the war, and he said or at least what he meaned but didnt say it was that it was baisicly a swampy h*llhole.
well no it would not be based on tanks but i guess if it was made i nto a game it would be defense suchas when the vietnamese attacked the us embassy on tet
USA got it's *** kicked so hard (even cowardly using extremely cruel weapons like Napalm)
.....d o u FULLY understand the mindset of the vietkong in that era...... they would set up pungee stakes mix with poison dirt or even fecal matter so a passing troop would walk into this pit fall and be impaired or impaled by this horrible thing..... traps set up in trees weighing 50 or more pounds with sticks sharpen to drop and INSTANTLY scure a soldier and kill him....... they LITTERALLY captured enemy snipers CASTRATED them and jammed the mans own testicals into his mouth........ do u really want to argue cruel?.......
thank god there isnt a game basedon what endscape said :0
He's talking about the Vietnam War on what the Viet Cong (South Vietnamese Guerrilla fighters working against the Americans) did. If you want to say that Napalm used by Americans is cruel, at least compare this to what the Viet Cong would do, as he explained VERY LIGHTLY.
ok lets get this straight they were both cruel, very very cruel.............. no arguing on that but, i mean a game like that (and dont bring up warfare 1917 and the gas......)
Don't bring it up because it destroys your argument?
If they can base a game around a war and use weapons such as gas which was used to kill millions of people, I don't see why they can't make another game about a different war and introduce other weapons that were used in an...unsavoury fashion...
simple (not really though and it didnt kill millions, you must be thinking of the haulocaust or some other "ethnic cleansing". thats the only time i know of poison gas killing millions.......

By the time the war ended, the main user of poison gas was Germany, followed by France and then Britain. Though poison gas was a terrifying weapon, its actual impact, rather like the tank, is open to debate. The number of fatalities was relatively few - even if the terror impact did not diminish for the duration of the war.
The British army (including the British Empire) had 188,000 gas casualties but only 8,100 fatalities amongst them. It is believed that the nation that suffered the most fatalities was Russia (over 50,000 men) while France had 8,000 fatalities. In total there were about 1,250,000 gas casualties in the war but only 91,000 fatalities (less than 10%) with over 50% of these fatalities being Russian. However, these figures do not take into account the number of men who died from poison gas related injuries years after the end of the war; nor do they take into account the number of men who survived but were so badly incapacitated by poison gas that they could hold down no job once they had been released by the army.
Or about a million, you could say "millions" loosely.
