How excited are people about hypothetical cold-war games? I mean now that it's relegated to the "Alt-History" realm instead of the "possible-very-near-future" realm? The gaming possibilities are pretty cool - is this something that would hold people's interest given that now it's neither history nor speculative future?

To me game play is more important than history, so the above could be good, but I think the winning conditions would have to be somewhat random due to uncertain nature of the conflicts.

possibility to see unexpected allies helping out in some cases depending on perhaps what counties bases are captured triggering other nations to panick and jump in.
