"Some other options include GDW's The Third World War and GDW's Assault series. Both are long out of print and very complex but are way better than SPIs V Corps."

"That S&T game was a remake of the old ModQuad SPI game of Wurzburg that was was originally set in the late '70s. Joe just ported it back to the pentomic divisions of the '50s. If you're looking for tactical mid-80s…"
