I played this game for dozens of hours on my Apple II growing up. Even today, I'll occasionally haul out my Apple II emulator and play a game now and again every couple of years -- modern wargames have surpassed it for sophistication, graphics and detail, but, there is still an elegant simplicity to the "real-time" mechanics in this game that I haven't really found in any other wargame since. It helps if you have Sid Meier doing the design. All that being said - this is definitely a nostalgia play. I don't think I'd pick it up at full price, but, if around Christmas it drops down to a couple of bucks, I think I'd grab it then just for the convenience of having it in a modern launcher framework.
