The fuck you mean grand strategy game? Vietnam is some mountains and some jungles. The area is so small you cant do Hoi4 style because you realistically flew a helicopter from one side to another in a day. The wars are so short you cant do a ck3 or eu5 style game. The most you can do with vietnam is do a fps like Battlefield.

Espiocracy seems to have an interesting take (if the game ever releases). Instead of trying to paint a map directly with your units, it's more about the intelligence side of things to influence the overall war. Establishing smuggling and support routes, intel gathering, psyops, political operations, surgical spec ops raids etc.

Most GSGs don't know how to model insurgencies and popular support. So it's better as a tactical game.

You'd have to do something like Crusader Kings where you can manage certain aspects of culture/cores without actually holding the land with HoI partisans and sieging.

Just have a HoI style game where militia units randomly spawn. You can have landless countries in EU5, so just use them as the Vietcong, so they'd still be playable.

I always thought that punji pits just worked off of collapsing under enough weight, but it seems like they've put several internal punji pits in their tunnels, and I'd guess that you didn't have enough space to crawl around it.
