ISIS War: The Next Middle East War
This strategic wargame examines a possible near-future war in the Middle East, set from 2017 to 2020. The scenario begins with Iraqi Kurdistan declaring independence, potentially leading to a wider Greater Kurdistan and coordinated Iranian and Turkish intervention. Players conduct the opening stages of an Iranian offensive aimed at establishing regional dominance, or model an Iranian response to US or Israeli strikes against its nuclear facilities. The game does not include nuclear weapons or other weapons of mass destruction, focusing instead on conventional military operations and strategic decisions.
