Tour of Duty is a realistic team play mod for Halflife by Valve Software. The game is set at the height of the Vietnam war, between 1967 and 1973 allowing you to relive the conflict fighting either for the United States Marine Corp (USMC) or the Viet Cong (VC)/North Vietnamese Army (NVA). The mod features realistic weapons of the period, and a number of gameplay styles including control point capture, demolition or bombing missions, capture the flag/radio/codemachine and escape and evasion are the currently coded styles. We are also planning on adding rescue missions, where you'll rescue a general or famous figure. We've added support for some vehicles that players can ride into the action in, with guns 'ablazing', right now, we have a huey that players ride to the bomb target zone, and have plans for PT boats in future levels.

Do you or anyone you know have an extremely good knowledge of the vietnam war? I need someone who is like a history major or something that has a very good factual knowledge about the vietnam war. history, timeline, location, weapons, vehicles, and whatever else. So if you or someone else you know has this knowledge and is willing to help out let me know.

Actually, I do not have any IM programs because I never use them enough. However, I had already taken the liberty of copy/pasting your email into my friends list on Steam. I am, therefore, able to instant message any of my friends, and your name comes up as Mantis. Never see you on Steam though.
