Command: Modern Air/Naval Operations

What is Command?

Command: Modern Air/Naval Operations (formerly Project: Red Pill) is a comprehensive wargame of air & naval (and limited ground) military operations from post-WW2 to the near future, covering scenarios of both total-war and low-intensity/other-than-war situations. The scale is primarily tactical/operational, although strategic-scale operations are also possible.

Plenty of scenarios covering multiple historic and hypothetical conflicts, plus an integrated scenario editor
Tremendous flexibility of scale: From counter-piracy skirmishes to strategic nuclear war

Good modeling of land-based forces (relevant to air/naval/space operations)
