Default Re: DienBienPhu- How difficult to convert?

I've been playing your DBP scenario. I've made it to turn 10. I've spent all of that time trying to get troops into positions. Which is kinda boring. I have almost all of my troops on the ground, and still have large parts of my entrenched areas uncovered. The troops seem to land in about 3 areas only. So I end up moving them long distances, by foot obviously. I've already lost 4 or 5 VP hexes because my troops started too far away from them.

I'm not an expert on that battle. I do remember reading about it at least once. Seems to me like it would've made for a faster played scenario if it had started at least 10 turns later than it did. In other words, with the French troops already in place.
