This game is the unheralded analog to Eastern Front for the Atari 8-bit by Chris Crawford. It has an excellent balance of playability, realism, and extendability. It provided my friend and me countless hours of entertainment in college. It would be great to adapt this to the Mega65 or the iPad.

Phil,
My friend and I love this game, and we still play it in our mid-fifties. If you have any to sell, or a manual to sell, we'd be very interested in buying them. On another note--have you thought of any more C-64 wargames like this? The Mega 65 comes out soon.

This was probably one of the best wargames I ever owned. Imagine an entire campaign of the eastern front on a 64K computer! I would spend hours going through strategy and analyzing the basis of proper attack: envelope by armour and destruction by infantry. The Snow and Mud seasons are especially frightful for German forces...so I learned to end operations before they hit...and to fortify the front! What a great game that really pushed the limits of the C64!
