WW3 or Coldwar wargames needed for game fix

Hello All

I need a new game fix and need one fast ....

I am really looking for a World War 3 or Cold War Wargame, that has a good MP following as well as good support from the publisher.

Naval or Land preferred.

I have been looking at harpoon 3, but am going to wait for the MP to come out first.

Can anyone reccomend any games please.

Thanks

I think Flashpoint Germany sounds right up your alley. Should be out in a couple of months (though you sound more desperate than that).

Take a look a Supreme Ruler 2010, an RTS with optional turn base mode. The boys at battlegoat look like they have a sure winner when it comes out.

Cold War Fleet (TM) at www.coldwarfleet.com or www.mnemonicgames.com

Though it will be some time before it will be commercially available...

I would recommend you fill out the game survey located at the website though. We need more feedback on that title in particular...

The AAR over at Flashpoint Germany has sold me the game. Though I'm not really into Nato vs Warsaw pact games this game looks very good. I love all the extra technology that is used aswell (monitoring radio waves)!

Just wanted to say that those three games listed on www.mnemonicgames.com sound really interesting.

"Sniper Ambush" sounds interesting (and will probably interest a few the reside in these forums), and I`ve always had a soft spot for naval warfare.

On another note, I`ve been following the progress of "Flashpoint Germany", and I`m looking forward to that lots!

SPMBT from http://www.shrapnelgames.com/SPCamo/index.htm may also be worth a look, though I`m not sure if this is the scale you are looking for.

My suggestions:

1) SPMBT - free download - based on Steel Panther games.

2) Fleet Command - Carrier Ops - real cheap with mods and scenarios.

3) Sub Command - nuclear subs

4) TAOW - lots of scenarios at Wargamer.com

All great recommendations from Warfare. He's making me paranoid with his picks.[X(]
