Global Struggle is a strategy multi-player play by email  (PbeM), political-economic-military simulation based on Civilization concepts. Weekly turns represent the passage of one year in game time, starting in 1800. Multiple games ran at same time, each limited to 35 players. Are you capable of running a nation, one that has a budget, military, research facilities, laws, and free thinking citizens? Are you sure you can do it? Want to bet on that? The rules include provisions for technological changes, economic policy, military operations and logistics, Intelligence, exploration and colonization, research projects, elections, and many other features. 

Battle Cell - Maneuvers and Tactics is a set of 3 games, first and foremost they are games of strategy and tactics. It is filled, with clever twists. The large board (13x15, 195 cells, creates a myriad of choices and decisions, making it perhaps the richest war game I’ve ever experienced. NOTE: The boards are on Excel Spreadsheets, which allows for some variation of the games. Or can be printed out for face-to-face competition.

Battle Cell Conflict, is the Land game, it has a Headquarters unit, 2 Artillery units, 4 Cavalry units, 6 Infantry units. It also contains 3 Fortified positions, 7 mountain cells, 10 hills cells, 14 forest cells, 13 water cells, and 148 field cells. The goal is to destroy the opponents Headquarters. Turn based it is far more exciting than chess or similar games.

Battle Cell Engagement, is the Sea game, it has a Flagship, 2 Supply ships, 6 Frigates and 4 Battleships. It also contains 16 land cells, 16 Shallows cells, and 163 Ocean cells. Of these Ocean cells some are included within each sides own harbors. The goals here are to one sink the Flagship, and two force the other side to surrender or be destroyed. It also is turn based. Imagine the Battleship game only you can move your units around the board.

Battle Cell Dogfight, is the Air game, it contains 1 Awacs, 1 Anti-Aircraft unit, 1 Aerial Tanker, 3 Bombers and 8 Fighters. While it also contains 195 squares, each side has 12 reserved in their color for planes to land upon, when they can’t be Aerial Fueled, Also in the middle of the 12 is located a 13^th that is the AA unit. That leaves 169 squares for maneuvers in the dogfights. It also is turn based.
