Old but gold.
Many Nations to choose from and advance through the ages ( Ancient age to Modern Age )
You dont need to wipe out the whole enemy Nation in order to win, you have multiple ways to win a game, like building more Wonders than your opponent and defending them at all costs, conquering enemy Capital city, or Launching an Armaggedon of Nuclear missiles that forces everyone in the map to lose ( when countdown reaches 0 ).

Im not in the mood for cold war theme because i prefer vanilla ArmA 3 high tech gear but i have to admit that i love this mod.
Ill give details about Pros and Cons:

PROS:
- Highly detailed units, Uniforms, gear, weapons and vehicles ( unfortunetly there is no Tank interior ), the 80's vibe its very strong and all equipement its very realistic concerning real life.
- As i said, the theme of this mod its in the 80's, so dont expect any kind of high tech gear like Night vision, thermal modes, laser pointers, multiple gun sights, Range finders, etc... ( there are gear like that but its very limited ), so its a pretty barebones combat simulator that you need to use different tactis to approach your enemies, especially when majority of Opfor and Blufor soldiers use 7.62mm ammo ( G3 and Mpi Ak 72 rifles ) that can kill you in 1 shot, and you dont wear any kind of body armor. I like the hardcore realism, but perhaps some people will not like it.
- The Weferlingen map its super massive and beatifull, and for the first time in the series you have a winter variant. The map its recreated using data from satellite imaging ( towns, villages, forests, etc... ), so if you live in Central Germany and you know the place, you can blow up your own house... There is no Airfields, because the real life terrain doesnt have none.

CONS:
- I love playing as Opfor guy, when i create missions in the editor i usually play as Opfor East German, and i have to say that the T-55 its severely outgunned and has a massive lack of armor compared to the West German Leopard Tank. I know that in real life the T 55 sacrificies armor for speed, but the gun its very powerfull, on par with a Leopard.
These issues combined with the fact that the whole map its a very huge Plain ( there arent any kind of rocks or hills ), you are pretty much rekt the whole time if you use the T 55, because Leopards can see you miles away and a single shot from their main gun can destroy you, even if hits the frontal armor, and they rarelly miss. if you create T 55 missions on the editor, be ready to save multiple times before engagements or you will destroy the keyboard. i believe that this issues wold be easy to mitigate if we were playing on Altis or Malden, because those terrains have multiple elevated positions like rocks, mountains or hills that you can climb or hide with your tank, and fire from above at 2 miles away. But in Weferlingen its not the case, because as i said, the whole map its a huge plain/meadow.

- For some reason, the AI controlling the Opfor Mil-2 chopper dont fire their missiles at all if i put them on the Editor. Both the pilot and gunner insist to use the petty cannon instead of firing the guided missiles against enemy vehicles. That is not the case with the West German PAH chopper, the AI its more than capable to fire guided missiles at long range, wrecking my Units. I feel that the Devs cared far more to West German Units, and didnt tweaked or sovle the issues with the East german ones.

3 stars out of 5

Great military simulator with tons of vehicles, weapons and infantry classes like real world military.
This game has hundreds of hours of content: Campaign, showcases, mission editor, and workshop missions to download if you want.
The real joy of this particular videogame its the combined arms ( Tanks, Jets and infantry working together to capture an objective ), if you find those servers online its one best experience in gaming history.
Take your time learning this game though, or you will hit the ground so hard that you dont stand up again.

Love it
