WARNO: The Cold War Gone Hot

  Have you tried Eugen System's WARNO yet?  You really should if you are into Cold War-era wargames.  It was precisely this genre that got me hooked on computer gaming, this being back in the actual Cold War days of the 1980s with my Atari 800XL.  Back then we had access to such great WWIII titles as SSI's Reforger '88, Microprose's NATO Commander  (by Sid Meier!), and DataSoft's Theater Europe, to name just a few.   Sadly, with the end of the Cold War, such titles became few and far between.  With the exception of some more hardcore indie efforts, true NATO vs. Pact games with AAA polish were scarcer than quality Soviet automobiles.
