Superpower 2
Wargame
Cold Waters

If you like board games there's Twilight Struggle. It's still one of the best two player games and there's a steam version so you can play against AI and online.

What's the name of the European strategy game, that's almost exactly what you're looking for. There's even an expansion all about chinese communist aggression. European Escalation or something.

I was mostly looking for something more global, that would cover the Korean and Vietnam wars, at least.

Twilight Struggle looks interesting with its board game aspect. I heard that Superpower 2 is rather buggy though

there's a cold war mod for Hearts of Iron 4

World in Conflict

It's kind of ridiculous that Paradox, who between the game ideas in HOI3 and Victoria 2 and EU4, only tried once at a Cold War simulator, just to scrap it

Command and Conquer franchise is historically accurate.

Global Thermonuclear War.

Wargame Red Dragon is still pretty damn good, some DLC factions but I only ever got the recent one that has Yugoslavia and Finland.

Recently I've been trying out Cold Waters on steam, pretty decent nuclear sub game, you can live out your Red Storm Rising/Red October fantasies.

fun

Glorious.

It's not on sale though. I'll keep an eye out.

Their is a total overhaul mod for Victoria 2 called New World Order that simulates from 1950 to 2050 that is very well done.

top fucking kek

I played the leaked version. It didn't feel like it was that far from being completed. Plus Paradox releases broken shit that they fix-up later, so I just don't get why they didn't just see it the rest of the way through.

This sounds interesting. Vicky's influence system seems like it would work well in a Cold War setting

World in Conflict has a good and worthwile story and the solid gameplay mechanic. Solid choice for singelplayer and Multiplayer is possible, makes a lot of fun with the class system and some friends for a good old-school lan party. But it is nothing in depth.

In Wargame the Singleplayer campaings are okay in presentation and are nice to learn how the game in general works, but the multiplayer is a real goldmine. You have so many combinations with different nations, coalitions, Doctrines and even Eras (1980s, 1985s 1990s) that there is much to learn and to play. MAps range from 1 vs 1 ranked to massive 10 vs 10 games. It just never has any story to it and can get a bit repetitive.

There are also Combat Mission games, which are pricey but also very detailed. Like a more hardcore version of MoW.

If you want something more realistic but not turnbased, go look for Flashpoint campaigns
giving you hexbased cosim strategy.

Or you can try to find people playing Modern Warfare Mod for CoH with you.

Try Wargame Red Dragon. It doenst cover up any real conflicts but includes 4 SP what if Campaigns, Holding Busan Pocket in case of another Korean War, China invades Hong Kong, China trys to capture Wladiwostok, Soviet Union Air Invasion of Japan, and a bigger Korea Campaign named "2nd Korean war.

Dawns early light Red Hammer is also a good Cold War boardgame.
