I never played Gary Grigsby's DOS version of WIP. I started with Uncommmon Valor and it's WIP follow up. I did play another game eerily like WIP on Sega Genesis in the mid 90's called PTO: Pacific Theater Of Operations. Did that game have connection to WIP?

No connection other than subject matter and how contemporary they were to each other. None of Gary Grigsby's games were ever designed for a console that I know of.

That is what started it all for me! Loved that game! PTO-PACWAR-UV-WITP-WITPAE

PTO was a board game long before a computer game of that name appeared. It had a sister game named ETO. Played the hell out of both. https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/8976/world-war-ii-pacific-theater-operations

Did they both start as board games?

They had rules to combine them. How'd that play?
