Overview:

The reverse suffered by the French army at the hands of the Japanese aggression led the new Thai government to strongly reaffirm its intention to reintegrate Laos and Cambodia into the motherland. The state of latent war came to a sudden end on 10 January 1941 when the Thai Army went on the offensive. On Colonial Road 1, the main artery in Cambodia, the attack was strong and the French troops had to fall back in order to establish a more solid defensive line. Despite appearances, the French high command had made arrangements for just such an occurrence and it ordered an immediate counterattack on the Thai Army’s left flank.
Attacker: Thai (2nd Infantry Division, Royal Thai Army)
Defender: Vichy (3ème Bataillon du 5ème Régiment Étranger d'Infanterie and Détachement Motorisé, 11ème Régiment d'Infanterie Coloniale)

2024-07-30(D) Kevin Duval vs Dwayne DuvalA Thai winAl lot of HOB Heros generated, but Thai got through the Vichy with greater CVP and ultimately won with the VP needed.
2023-10-08(A) Richard Jenulis vs Brent Morris Thai winBoth side get to attack and defend in this scenario. My Air Support failed to do anything more than a PIN on one unit, and it mucked up the bomb drop.
2022-09-04(D) Dave Mareske vs Dan Best Vichy winPick up game at Omaha Tournament. Dan’s Thai troops ran out of steam being unable to make MCs and conceded before the tanks could get involved.
