Development edit
The game was reported to be a "side project" of Leszek Lisowski, leader of Wasteland Interactive team, developed in his free time while the main team was focusing on the Worlds of Magic.[2][3]
Plot edit
The game is set in an alternative timeline where Stalin's death turns Cold War into World War III.
Gameplay edit
The game is played mostly on a hex-type map of Europe with fragments of Asia, Africa and USA. The game is mostly focused on combat (strategic movement of units), with limited diplomacy, economy and technology research menus.
