Let’s face it, there are a lot of us war-gamers who yearn for the good ole’ days of the Cold War. Back then there was a clear good guy and a clear bad guy in the world, and it all made more sense. After the fall of the Berlin Wall many of us still wondered, What would have happened if the “balloon went up” during the 1980’s and the Warsaw Pact attacked NATO or the bad guy attacked the good guy (depending on what side of the curtain you where on)?
