Korean war in games

But there are enough bits and pieces out there to get started. It all depends on what you want to accomplish. It takes some doing, but scenarios built for previous TOAW titles, as well as Alternate Wars, can be converted to work in the latest software. Koger built several interesting triggers into the scenario — for instance, if the UN drops airborne troops into either Soviet or Chinese territory, those countries will opt to intervene in Korea.

You can find the download link in this post. Arma 3 players are in pretty good shape here. Jack recommends installing the Korean War Factions mod by jarrad96, which adds period-accurate uniforms and gear. Up in arms: Check out our list of the best Arma 3 mods.

And that about wraps things up for our list of Korean War games. Researching this piece, I found that other writers have been complaining about the lack of games — of any genre — dealing with the Korean War for the full 30 years represented here, and the situation is unlikely to change any time soon.

I do not have any personal experience with game files from the Underdogs site, so this shouldn't be taken as an endorsement.

Don't bother with Theater of War Korea. Post : Thanks for the feedback on TOW Korea.

I must admit it looked interesting and would have purchased when funds permitted. Think I will spend my money elsewhere, most likely here! Thanks again. Thanks for the suggestions everyone.

Caught my interest. Which scale? There are so many war games out there, it's like a needle in a haystack. A needle that I haven't yet come across! I'm a fan of strategic browser games , so prefer games like Battlestar Galactica Online and Sealords Online. Let me know if you find something epic! I posted a similar question ages ago. Much easier to get a vietnam scenario I think. I would do about anything for an operational level Vietnam game.

Matrix has been way too quite on major releases lately. It seems lately all it has been is expansions and budget titles that they are just publishing. Nothing 'home made' and certainly no major announcements since War in the East. I yearn to know the next big title, and I hope there is actually one being developed. Which is a shame. I love weird wars with fresh technologies. Since the Korean War reflects World War 2 type action, could any of the Close Combat series be modified to address this conflict?
