Combat Mission Cold War

Short description

CM Cold War is set in the tipping-point years of a conflict that gripped the world for 45 years. Between 1979-1982, both the NATO and Soviet Warsaw Pact militaries began the shift away from industrialized warfare of the early 20th century and towards the modern digital battlefield of today.

Review count and SteamSpy's owner range agree well enough to narrow the estimate down to this band. Multiplied by $57.02, the average price these copies actually sold for — weighted from the price history rather than taken from the $59.99 launch price. That is 5% below list price on average. Before Steam's cut, VAT and refunds. How these numbers are calculated.
