Southwest of Hildesheim, June 11th 1985: The 9th Guards Tank (GDR) Division had broken through the NATO front lines southwest of Hildesheim. The cost was tremendously high, both sides having fought themselves to a standstill. In order to take advantage of this penetration, the newly arrived point of the 14th Guards Motor Rifle Division was ordered to head directly towards the Weser. Somehow the 14th GMRD had become widely split, with the HQ and point way ahead of the main body, held up by clogged roads. The Divisional commander was ordered to avoid major action and, using the network of minor roads southwest of Hildesheim and Hannover, secure a crossing on the Weser at Hameln, or Rinteln, and push beyond if possible. [Size: small] Designer note: This scenario uses an exit hex for the Warsaw Pact Forces. Play as Warsaw Pact Human vs. the AI, or as Human vs. Human.

NGP '85 is somewhat the most appealing title of the ones covering hypothetical NATO vs Warsaw Pact confrontation even though FG '85 and DF '85 are also good, maybe I just don't dislike all those forested areas in the south. NGP '85 just has that something which keeps me going on even against extremely adverse odds.
