Play into the 1950s.

Espionage now takes a role in the game and if you play as the Soviets in the new nuke scenario you’ll need it to play some serious catch-up. Spies can be used for a number of purposes. They can be assigned to steal technology from your enemies, foment rebellion, sabotage production, and to gain intelligence on enemy troop positions. The spy game is not an easy one, though; you’ll wind up with more dead spies than you will with spectacular espionage coups.

Ultimately, your enjoyment of the game will depend on the type of gamer that you are. If you have a short attention span or lack the patience to have your rear handed to you on a platter time and again until you can get up and over the steep learning curve, then avoid this game at all costs. If the thought of controlling every aspect of a nation at war in real-time makes you giddy, then this game will make you ecstatic.

In The End, This Game Hath Been Rated: 82%.  If you like complicated war games with Everest-sized learning curves, then this is the game for you.
