 This is a rule set I wanted to buy but the cost was high. Via a file share I have been able to look at copies to see if I can use my 1/72 kits with these.

Stayed tuned. From what i have been able to read, these rules are a squad based system allowing the use of vehicles in support. Artillery support is probobly provided as off table, similiar to Bolt Action. 

Armed Forces of the World

Another book by Bison books covering 20th century military history.

Its an interesting read as to the situation of the 1980s with the Cold War. The amazing situation in reality is that by 1989, the whole situation would be changed.

 

Source book Land Warfare

A very interesting read by Bison books, part of their modern military history series which were published in the 1980s.

The writing is interesting to read with the hindsight we have now of what the actual situation was in the Cold War.
