Operation Pegasus (board game)

Operation Pegasus is a board wargame published by Task Force Games that simulates the 1968 Battle of Khe Sanh during the Vietnam War.

In March 1968, an overland relief expedition called Operation Pegasus was launched by a joint United States Army/Army of the Republic of Vietnam (ARVN) task force.

Perry Moore designed Operation Pegasus, and it was published by Task Force Games in 1980, only 12 years after the Battle of Khe Sahn.

The game is a must for all contemporary era gamers, and the rest of us can re-live the famous helicopter attack scene from Apocalypse Now [...] Four stars.

"[3] In Fire & Movement #84, Joseph Miranda wrote, "Operation Pegasus avoids the more obvious routes to the simulation, and instead delivers a game system that catches the flavor of airmobile operations [...] This is probably the only wargame which shows logistical considerations in a manner which has at least some connection to the way they are really conducted in the military."
