In addition to over 40 scenarios, Tour of Duty has a Campaign Game, the first in the Squad Battles series to do so, which enables the player to assume the role of a leader and fight multiple battles over the course of a year in Vietnam. There are 5 campaigns, including American Army, Marine, Air Cavalry, Army Riverine, and Australian forces.
