[QUOTE=Aztek]OMG I remember Ice Wars.

You had to "purchase" units for the scenarios. It was a fun little game. I played it quite a bit with one guy who also enjoyed SPIs "Musket and Pike".

Man fond memories. If only I had kept all those games.[/QUOTE]

hehehehehehe

one of the things I loved about Ice war was the purchase system......and units would cost less if you brought them on in later turns as reinforcments. And the OWPs....blast holes in the ice from space to block soviet units movments=)

No clue what happened to my copy. Im sure it in one of my multitude of boxes in storage. Have a few of those still around somewhere...the one where you play primitive neanderthal people trying to survive...."Invasion of the Air Eaters" was always a blast as well=)

[QUOTE=JReb]You old guys may have to help me out here but when I was 11 or 12 (1975-1976) my brother bought me a game called USN. It covered the entire WITP with the paper map and counter trays. I can't remember who made it though.[/QUOTE]

Sounds like one of SPIs old flat tray games. They had some good ones. =)
