Command: Northern Inferno

Product Info

 

The year is 1975, the Cold War is omnipresent and beneath the veneer of détente the tension between the two superpowers irreversibly escalate towards the ultimate confrontation.

As an at-sea "accident" results in the sinking of a Royal Navy frigate and the Warsaw Pact is mobilizing, events rapidly spiral out of control. The world is plunging towards another global conflict - but this time, there will be no post-war recovery, only nuclear disaster.

Do you have what it takes to stand up to Soviet/WP forces and avert Armageddon?

Command: Northern Inferno is a stand-alone game that uses the latest version of the Command: Modern Air/Naval Operations (CMANO) engine. It also serves as a DLC for existing CMANO owners.

For the first time after the release of the most realistic and accurate modern warfare simulation, the developer, Warfare Sims, has created a fully-fledged campaign expansion that encompasses 15 scenarios across one of the most thrilling and intense moments of recent history.

While the campaign is fictitious, every single part of this electrifying set of scenarios has been meticulously researched to deliver an entirely new experience to please both novice players and experts.

Real and Simulated Wars Review
"The quality of the scenarios is extremely high: the scope, level of detail, the deployments and orders of battle reveal a deep understanding of naval warfare [...] The naval, air and amphibious maneuvers portrayed in Northern Inferno (NI) are the choreography of navies dancing into arguably the last ballet movement of human history. Are you going to miss it?"

Tech Raptor Review
Pure player agency is where the CMANO engine truly shines. Aside from your assigned area of operations and your orders, there are no rails here, no handholds, no meaningless choices. How well you use the assets at your disposal, versus how well the AI uses theirs, that alone will determine the outcome.

Greek Gamer Review
Command: Northern Inferno is a truly relentless simulation both in its UI complexity and in its strategic planning.
