I think the system would be perfect for the battles for control of the French positions at Dien Bien Phu in 1954. A great mix of unit types : French Foreign Légion , Paras, Algerian , Thai ,and regular French Army VS Viet Min regular and elite units. Some French units fight to the last man while others were unreliable. For the Viet Min , morale was critical , at one point they nearly called off the offensive because of casualties and lack of medical care. There are several excellent books on the battle containing great detail to assist scenario design.
