WARNO

In an alternate 1989 where the Cold War turns hot, you command forces from NATO or the Warsaw Pact in a conflict centered on Germany. Build a battlegroup from Cold War units, with each division drawing on its own roster of infantry, armor, artillery, aircraft, and support. Real-time battles put you in charge of deployment, reconnaissance, logistics, and the push for map objectives. Use terrain and coordinated ground and air units to advance the frontline, and issue orders before combat begins or adjust them as the fight unfolds. Play skirmishes solo, cooperatively, or against other players, including battles of up to 10v10. Turn-based Army General campaigns let you direct formations across a wider strategic map, while scripted Operations focus on individual combat missions.

Command NATO or Warsaw Pact forces in 1989, building battlegroups and directing combined-arms battles in real-time and turn-based modes.
