Description:

This is the original COLD WARS GAME: NOT THE COPIED VERSION BY GLOBAL
IMPERIALISTS

Ever wondered how you would fare as a world leader?
This is your chance to find out!

The world is recovering from its greatest crisis. Millions are dead and
cities are still laying in debris. The old order is largely gone. The
great powers of Europe are holding on as best as they can. The masses of
Asia, Africa and Latin America are now demanding their place in the sun.
Can you lead your nation through this maze of dangers and opportunities.
Your decisions may lead a nation to economic boom or to political
disaster. Statecraft is a requirement to maneuver in a world slowly, but
surely, becoming dominated by two aggressive ideological camps.

This game is being restructured as we play. Players must stay flexible to
change. The Game Masters expect that you will turn in turns and make
posting. We are open to any and all suggestions that players have.

Currently it is 1951. Germany has been reunited. Argentina has emerged as
a world power. Red China has been admitted to the United Nations. NATO has
collapsed and a new organization, the London Accords, has taken its place.
Stalin is dead and the Soviet Union is embarking upon a new road to
socialism. The world since 1948 has changed dramatically. Come and help us
change it more....or put it it back in order if you like.
