Cold War Battles is a quick playing, easy to learn, Turn Based Hex and Counter Wargame. CWB features real and hypothetical conflicts from 1945-1990. Whilst simple to pick up and play there is still plenty of tactical depth, you will need to take terrain and cover into account as you move your troops, use smoke to block line of sight, decide when and where to unload your transports or call in Artillery and face a tough AI opponent as competent at attacking as it is defending. Whilst this release focuses mainly on what would have happened if the Cold War between NATO and the Warsaw Pact had gone 'hot' between 1945 and 1990 it also features scenarios from the fringes of the Cold War. Lead units into battle from the Northern tip of Norway in the early 80's to the Golan Heights in '73, Germany in the 80's to Vietnam in the 60's and more. Command historically accurate formations from Company to Battlegroup size across decades of conflict. Easy to learn, hard to master turn based tactics without complex Logistics or spreadsheets of obscure data to wade through. Classic Hex and Counter Board Wargame feel Over 250 real world units and formations from more than a dozen nations and factions so far. 5 decades of conflict. Turn based battles across 30+ handcrafted single player scenarios and mini campaign missions (So far...) 500m hex size and Platoon / Troop sized Unit Counters. Plenty of challenging scenarios across a range of Theatres and timelines, including missions set in conflicts and timelines rarely seen in computer wargames such as Angola and Grenada. Multiple AI battle plans for each scenario to keep Commanders on their toes. Use Recon units to scout the way, push transports as close as you dare, maybe covered by smoke, unload your infantry to take objectives whilst your armour flanks the foe and artillery bombards targets of opportunity... Or sit and watch as the enemy does the same. With attack, defence and meeting engagement missions, command formations from Company to Battlegroup size across decades of warfare.
