Mission and support level
The next thing you need to work out is the mission, threat level, weather, radio contact and air and artillery support.
These can all be done with a flip of a card and will let you know wether you are patrolling for a hidden weapons cache in or trying to extract a downed air crew.
What support you will have during the mission and wether you are going into a hot or cold LZ being patrolled by elusive VC or hard core NVA troops.
I have made some tokens on my 3d printer to keep track of the threat level and the level of support available.
The Red threat tokens are taken from a big pool so they are random and one will get revealed each time the enemy has the initiative in a turn.
In a cold LZ these are only revealed after the first shots of the game have been fired.
I should probably print out the sheet the tokens go on.
