fun fact: on initial contact i was immediately shot, knocked uncon, and spent 2 minutes drowning in the river

CIA Psyops: *fucking ghost sounds and shit* VC Psyops: "Friendly, cease fire."

AFI Flank is just map bound Schlieffen Plan

God the VC retreating without ARVN even attacking is such a mental domination on ARVN's part

Member of the combat squad here. We lost our radio very early on and we had no contact with other units. We started the round thinking we were right at their spawn. Once we realized that they were going to flank us, the original squad moved around and got separated. I was the AT guy so I was very slow and joined a group of guys. We were just quietly going through the jungle and just happening to hit ARVN at the best times. The river flank was just us basically following sounds and walking in random directions. At the end the VC are shooting from the hideout thinking we are ARVN. Me and the other guys in the squad assume its ARVN and since I was too slow to run, I decided to do a last stand thinking there were way more ARVN than there actually were. Also, in the mirror match I was the driver of the APC and when we get ambushed and molotov'd, I panicked and tried to run the VC down. Somehow me and Latham were able to stealthily drive the APC and clear the hideout together. It was so much fun and is genuinely the most fun I have had in Arma!

That flank was epic, but also pretty accurate. They were literally in the trees all around them, almost by chance, and executed an ambush even with low tier communication equipment.

the arvn grenadier needs to get a medal of honor holy shit

It's a shame we can't always see the debriefs. Love hearing about what everyone was thinking and why they did what they did. Great content as always Rimmy!

During the first attack me and some medics were trying to revive a guy who was already dead by the river.

This series is just amazing, that surround maneuver was just gold VC moto: "even when lost, our enemy is still surrounded" "The army that makes the second to last mistake is the one that wins"~ general from the Ciaphas Cain series

The virgin “combat squad” vs the chad “litterally just some guy with a fucking grenade”

i wanted to hear the VC's reaction to finding out they called a retreat when it was solely just the grenadier attacking

Ah yes, I remember back in 'Nam when the Vietcong utilized monkeys to man the machineguns, truely terryfing times.

Very cool this is what I thought team death match would have been when I played my first multiplayer game of cod

11:51 in that moment, that was the worst clicking noise i ever heard

Damn that was extremely unexpected Felt the VC were screwed because they got deorganised and fell into chaos and lost a point without putting up resistance An unexpected flank from behind and east? Pinned down the AVRN forces an allowed them to be killed off. And then that tight ending which almost ended in VC defeat

ARVN’s performance is just one of those times in games you can complete at least a few objectives before or during a fight you’re supposed to lose to make sure the opfor only get a Pyrrhic victory if they only win because of plot

Glad to see the Back in 'Nam insanity cannot be contained to just a single group.

you ought to do more PVP games

VC: "It's immobile. If practicable, get up on that thing and slaughter those motherfuckers, over!" Rimmy: "Did you just hear that OpFor command? That was awesome!" Me: "Rimmy, have you ever seen a really old, really obscure history movie called *Gettysburg*?"

It takes a lot of commitment and coordination for a small unit like that to stay combat effective without any contact with friendly forces for so long.

Im starting to think that Grenadier was Specialist Hazard

I know this series may never continue due to unfortunate real life circumstances, but it was a blast while it lasted

5:34 lol I died in Squad 2's push over that hill

STAR TEAM REPRESENT, BABY!

Man I love this commentator perspective stuff. I'd love to see much more in future. Maybe even take part if I can get off shite retail shifts so I can get in on time zone difference. Keep it up Rimmy!

VC plan part 1: get a grenadier out in the field. Part 2: have said grenadier attack front line. Part 3: Retreat, someone’s blowing us up, surely it can’t be our own forces, the enemy must be advancing. Considering how short range their communications are, I feel like that’s a super real thing that could have happened in an actual war. Like I don’t know of a case where it has, but I’m sure it has.

So we see Rimmy enjoying a gods-eye view of the battle as he takes his role of Game Master.

Y'know what would be really cool? Seeing Rimmy do a game where the riot on the Kitty Hawk(1972) becomes out of hand and turns into a mutiny Edit: Y'know, this idea was completely stupid and after reading a bit more(a whole book) about the Kitty Hawk, I'd like to say that never again will I say the above statement.

This Op was just "No plan survives contact with the enemy" several times over.

I love staying up til 5 am to watch Rimmy

Oddly enough that is a rather accurate war scenario with how deludded and confused one side becomes it's actually very facinating and could be counted as an accurate simulation ....

There’s a really good video by zvallid about what it Germany had fought the Vietnam war. I’d like to see that turn into an Arma campaign.

The one time giving the LT the map and compass pays off XD Also, Boat deserves a medal for that suicide AT play XD

obligatory "If they run, they're VC! If they don't run, they're well-trained VC!"

Watching this after my nose surgery and wanted to say thanks for the laughs I feel a little better now.

I like Arma because you get fun moments like an element unknowingly firing on itself and then retreating because of it.

5:50 is some chad shit

Playing on the VC Side was A-MAY-ZING, had a blast playing. TvT is a very nice experience. Good stuff 10/10 would play and win again

Wow I literally discovered the channel yesterday and watched the video of the first Vietnam Arma 3 mission and today you do the second one wtf

I want to see the VC broadcasting Hanoi Hannah at the US forces sometime. Just see how much it spooks them.

This is such amazing content!! Keep up the good job Rimmy!!

I would love to see more of these! Along with the debriefs some of the most entertaining arma content in a while

Man, they’re getting SLAMMED by that guy with a Thumper!!! 40mm HE is terrifying enough but launching it from an angry tube, ya better have a good plan and some spare pants and boxers.

I feel like even though this was a tactical victory for VC, it was a spiritual victory for ARVN.

Loved the video @Rimmy - Downunder Gaming! Can't wait for the next video man! Would love to see the ARVN get some M41A2 Walker Bulldogs for Armor Support at some point as well man!

Legit set of questions as a newer zeus: What addons/modules are being used for; being able to see other zeus/moderators the fact that whenever something gets spawned you can see it rather than doing the add/remove editable along with the voice mod? the one that lets you talk as a zeus while in zeus mode, that one confuses me

oh wow, that was amazing. I want more.

Man, this video makes me miss running radio operator for my old unit. Got like 10 different things going on, and you need to pick through all of it to figure out whats important to you and where your squad lead needs his message sent

Please show more of this, I cant wait to see the follow up battles

Rimmy your vids help me get through my life and made me feel good when i had to chemo for cancer before i beat it which was today

Man its stuff like this that make the game really something insanely fun

that 40mm doing a damn good job of impersonating artillery

I really like this gods eye type of video, much easier to follow the battle this way imo

I enjoyed watching Rimmy commentate arma multiplayer

How did i manage to be this early for a video

If only the ARVN did this well in the actual war

Wait so what happened to this event/series? Did it just end in streams only?

Rimmy, you're not just some random Rim Job in an Austin, Texas Golden Corral Men's Bathroom at 0230 in the morning of April 27th 2005... You're MY Rim Job!

This seems like an amazing thing. Wish I could do this but… wallet no money

a fun watch, thanks!

I wish my community get to do a TvT event in the future cause I haven't played one in ages. This looked like loads of fun

Any of these Vietnam video that have the USS Kitty Hawk make me go "ay it's the Kitty Hawk" as my grandfather served as a aircraft maintenance engineer aboard the Kitty Hawk during Vietnam

Rimmy’s epic narration voice!

This is what happens when the trees start yelling Vietnamese at each-other.

6:48 What a badass

Good to see my immolation of the ARVN vehicle and myself made it in. Shame our at guy didnt realise he could reload his launcher.

AYYYY 1:51 is my org's (2nd MRB) dude, Laing! Almost thought he was BSing me.

This was so fucking good rimmy

YOOOOO Finland got mentioned nice ((Finnish person speaking))

Looks like it was a fun operation.

damn it looks AWSOME, i wish i could play this game that good

Can't wait until I upgrade my rig so I can try to get in on some of these, assuming you run more pub games

Best wishes

the lines by the opfor command are top tier

Rimmy will you do more of that zombie rts, I thought it was great and also you have a good taste in music

Gotta love how Rimmy says "kay-sh"

I’m going to join this and role play as Mitchell Werbell III

this is good i want more

Took me 10 minutes to realise that the two teams had different color circle unit markers. The red and green was too similar 🤣

Can't wait for an Arma: Attack on Titan mod where it's 1930s tech vs ODM gear

Will there ever be ROK Marines in this series, the VC and NVA feared them immensely, my dad told me they were almost as hard as the SEALs he was with.

The VC should get extra map info to add to the experience

This is good

Is the vod going to end up on Jerry Beans Man? I really enjoyed watching those...

3rd 500k subscribers 🥳

Can you guys do a red dawn styled Rama session I think it would be great to see.

U gotta play Friday night fights or invite them for some of these would be really nice

With how close Shadow was, I feel like it could've been counted as a win, but I respect sticking to the rules as written.

When the debriefing started it really confused me as I was watching this on full screen and I suddenly see a very unfamiliar taskbar layout pop out.

through the power of Lorrenor/Rorrenor Zorro the VC had done a great flank

GOOOOOODDD MORRRNING VIETNAM

Is that a Khruangbin song in the beginning? It’s a banger

I gotta find time to be a part of these ops

Shadow of war is a little darker in the jungle.

Shadow really pull a Rambo stunt

vietnam 2: Eletric Boogaloo

They should be listening to Sabaton while fighting the NVA to win.

quiche of weapons.

whyd i read ARVN as AVGN vietnam vs AVGN
