By the Knife: Soviet Invasion of Afghanistan

This is a free 36 page PDF to use in your own games with Seek Out, Close With, and Destroy and the DH/C7B system. It details Mujahideen, Afghan Governement forces, and Soviet forces, including artillery, vehicles, helicopters, and aircraft. This is however a work in progress (see my End Notes). I hope to include participation from our Yahoo Group members to produce a "chromed" version two months from now. I will be working on extra equipment to include as well, so the future finished work will be even more complete. In the meanwhile, take a look even if you don't game this conflict. You will find the Soviet information useful for a myriad of other conflicts. Have fun creating a little tabletop mayhem.
