Jan 6, 2026Flashpoint Campaigns: Cold War is one of the best World War III strategy simulations, mainly because of how it simulates command and control. Players have to take into account unit capabilities and employ a classic combined arms approach when possible, with simultaneous action and command cycles adding unpredictability and tension. Streamlined postures for all units and more options for the Standard Operating Procedure sections make it easier to try and execute complex plans. The presentation is pretty classic, which might make it hard for newcomers to engage. Flashpoint Campaigns: Cold War expands on all the cool ideas of Southern Storm (a discount is offered for owners of that title), and its variety of campaigns and scenarios is impressive.
