On April 2nd 1972, a U.S. Airforce EB-66 escorted a squadron of B-52 bombers over the demilitarized zone between North and South Vietnam. The unarmed electronic warfare plane, call sign “Bat-21?, carried a crew of six. Their mission was to seek out enemy missile batteries before they could strike the bombers. In the midst of an enemy invasion the airmen are shot down. They land as 30,000 North Vietnamese troops descend upon South Vietnam. Rescue attempts by air end in tragedy. But one Navy Seal refuses to leave three Americans behind enemy lines.

Although the wave of Vietnam games hasn’t had quite the staying power of WWII, various development houses have extracted some intriguing premises from the conflict. While the war didn’t feature the enormous scale of many WWII battles and operations, some folks have figured out how to turn this to their advantage, which is where the SOG comes in. An acronym for “Studies and Observation Group,” the SOG was the precursor to the famed Delta Force and established patrol techniques that are still in use today; the group sounds like a bunch of land surveyors, but this couldn’t be further from the truth. In fact, the SOG became so good at its job–squad insertion behind enemy lines, black ops including sabotage, recon, assassination and ambush–that the NVA created and trained special teams just to counter these elite servicemen. In theory, this is one of the compelling and rarely-told stories of the war and begs for a team-based treatment. In practice, however, a few problems prevent Elite Warriors: Vietnam from bringing the tension and thrill effectively to the computer screen.
