War Over the Mideast (WOM)
features a new interface from what was released with its predecessor, War
Over Vietnam. This was the result of extensive testing and feedback from
the Air Force's Squadron Officer College, Air and Space Basic Course. It's
designed to enhance control of the simulation and make for easier access
to information.

Continuing
the Modern Air Series |
|
|
Since ancient times the Mideast
has witnessed continuous clashes between religions, cultures, and nations.
Israel's reestablishment in 1948 attracted refugees from the world over
but also generated much resentment.
For the next sixty years
conflicts would rage with Israel at the center. 1956, '67 & '73 would
be years of major conflict and are all covered in this title. Additionally
actions in Lebanon ('82) and assorted strikes in '85, '06 & '07 are
also covered.
The violent Mideast chariot
clashes continue thousands of years after the Biblical era, but modern
chariots now flash across the sky trailing fire and raining down thunder
and lightning on the enemy below.
You will benefit from these
enhancements as you command your air force over small segments of the
Mideast or over the entire central & eastern Mediterranean air space. |

Scenarios are included covering engagements such as Operation Kadesh in
1956, to Operation Moked in 1967's Six Day War and the 1973 Mansourah Air
Battle. Scenarios range in size from small raids such as the 1981
Operation Opera - Iraq Nuclear Reactor Strike to huge battles such as
Purple Line - Crisis in the Golan Heights.
Like its predecessor, WOM includes a wide array of scenarios
allowing you to fly missions against fortified bases, or to fight an enemy
air force for air superiority. You will command aircraft from fixed-wing
prop driven Mustangs to Fourth Generation F-15's and F-16's with a wide
array of armaments. On the Arab side of the house you will have a choice
between Soviet T-34 Mentor's & MiG-15's on up to the MiG-25 Foxbat
& the Su-27 Flanker.
