Besides Northern Fury of course what other similar books are you reading these days to go hand in glove with CMO?

I’m becoming interested in CWDB conflict what-ifs, so I’m reading about SIOP-62 (https://nsarchive2.gwu.edu/NSAEBB/NSAEBB56/BerlinC1.pdf), Operation Dropshot (http://www.allworldwars.com/Dropshot%20 ... 01957.html), the Soviet Navy (https://www.cia.gov/library/publication ... orical.pdf), and nuclear war at sea (https://www.jstor.org/stable/2538940?se ... b_contents).
No books, but lots of interesting documents!

Kirov Series - The Next War!!! It was a long alternate history of WWII, but beginning with volume 41, Homecoming, it began the next war in 2021, and has released eight books in that segment of the series. New readers can jump right in with that book. CMANO was used to simulate all the air naval action described in the novels, and the series features action in the Pacific, East and South China Seas, Black Sea, Arabian Sea, Norwegian and Barents Seas, Denmark Strait. Loaded with CMANO action! All the books are on the publisher's web site at writingshop.ws, and the author mentions and plugs CMANO to all his readers.

I'm currently reading the original edition of John Hackett's "The Third World War"

I've also got a suggested reading list on Steam here:

I will be transfering this guide to the CMO Community page when I complete my CMO new player guide.

Seems pretty decent....I have all the audiobooks just started with the Ukraine one. Great ideas and breakdowns for the odd scenario for sure. Some with CMO and others tactical ones with Combat Misison-Black Seas....

I found the battlefield series interesting, but got kind of tired of it after the second book. The plot is always that the red side has some magic weapon that no one knew about and blue had to overcome it. Rinse and repeat. It does have some good CMO porn segments.

The British Carrier Strike Fleet: After 1945.

Has nothing to do with potential scenarios. Absolutely not...
