"Supreme Ruler: Cold War - Battlegoat in the hot seat

"The Cold War was a time of extreme tension between the planet's two largest superpowers. Despite the fact that the United States and the USSR never came to blows directly, the end of the world was truly just a phone call away. Could you have handled it better? That's what developer BattleGoat Studios wants to know in its latest entry in the Supreme Ruler series, Supreme Ruler: Cold War" "Of course, bringing about the end of the world is always more fun with friends. The game supports up to 16 players in multiplayer, but if you have that many combatants in the game, it can start to last months instead of hours. "

“...it’s amazingly comprehensive and strives to model economies, societal movements, terrain, resources, and so forth, so perfectly that it could be the nearest to a good total simulation of the world’s economy that’s publicly available...”

"The potential for endless replayability is there with this game and, more and more, we see this trend in the RTS genre."

”With three different gameplay modes, each one supported by up-to-fifteen player multiplayer, and literally the world at your fingertips, it's hard not to imagine the possibilities. Whether you like the slow-paced political thinker that the standard campaign will provide, or you want to create and rule over a small island paradise (with an iron fist, of course) or you're just looking for a RISK-like experience with your buddies over the internet, Supreme Ruler: Cold War seems to have you covered.”

“To nuke or not to nuke? - Building on the success of Supreme Ruler 2020, Supreme Ruler: Cold War takes you back to the tense Cold War years and lets you rule either the United States or Russia. Forge whatever path you desire during those tense years, but it’s probably a good idea to avoid blowing everything to hell in a fiery nuclear doom. Or if you do, make sure you’re on the “winning side”. It’s 1949. Do you know where the Bomb is?”
