Overview

The world erupts into war as the oil crisis boils over in the gulf of Aden in the 1980s! 

Following the disastrous fallout of the Iran-Iraq war and the danger of separatist states from the troubled Soviet union, the USSR launches a desperate attack into Germany in a desperate land grab to consolidate it's power as a show of force to the world.

Caught off guard by this sudden aggression, NATO forces must fight back against the invasion and prevent the reds from gaining a foothold on the Rhine as they pull their forces back from the middle east. 

Against the backdrop of this grand conflict, war breaks out anew in the gulf as Iraq, Iran and Syria drops once again into instability. Israel is caught up in this storm of violence and must defend itself against ancient enemies without any outside intervention once more.
