So many of the old games, board and computer, deserve a revisit.

I remember it! But for me it's difficult to play these monster games on a PC, I lose the "overall sight".

The time frame for the original "The Next War" game is 1978-1980, more or less. I presume the TOAWIII module is based on the same period.

I also made a scenario for GDW's Third World War for Schwerpunkt's Anglo-German War PC game. Someday after Scwherpunkt's forthcoming WWII-Europe game gets released, I intend to update the TWW scenario for it. We just don't seem to have good operational WW-III games these days like the old SSI Norm Koger classic, Red Lightning. That would be worth an update.
