You're right to a certain extent Frakkle, it is good to avoid certain controversy. On the other hand, many games out there don't bother... games based purely on history.
I've Decided that we are going to build a MUD based on Vietnam, however it will not be the same. It will not have the same people, or near the involvement in the beginning that it did in real life. Everything else will be the same as far as weaponry and the types of people that were there.
Everything in the past that has been done, and done well, has sparked some sort of complaint or controversy. I expect this. I am going to treat this MUD with the utmost respect to those that lost their lives in this war, and in memory of them show people what they really had to go through by recreating the same senario, that this time will be changed (the outcome and battles) by the players themselves.
