From Soviet doctrine to chemical weapons, from air war to amphibious ops, passing thru REFORGER, electronic warfare & Polish revolts.
How do you turn World War Three, the worst nightmare of 20th century, into a living room sim?
Anthony Morphet and Fabrizio Vianello will offer some hindsight on the design process & the decisions to take.

Thanks to Grognard Emeritus Antonio Jose Jiménez Pretel, we now have a Spanish version for the 1985: Under an Iron Sky rules! Huzzah!
A Polish version of 1985: Under an Iron Sky rules, thanks to Grognard Emeritus Tomasz Engielski!
Japanese, French, Polish…..We’re still missing the Russian version 🙂
Two unboxing videos for 1985: Under an Iron Sky came out recently!
The first one is from the veteran VLogger Ardwulf, published on his Ardwulf’s Lair channel:
The second is a very entertaining and unusual video by Gimpy’s Gal and Gimpy Gamer 🙂
Thanks to Grognard Emeritus Pierre-Olivier Pellissier, we now have a French version of the 1985: Under an Iron Sky rules!
Vive la France, Vive la Republique!
….and COVID took the Wargaming Conventions.
As there will be no conventions in the foreseeable future, we decided to send to the front the strategic reserve of copies kept until now for conventions usage. In plain terms, this means:
As a side note, 1985: Under an Iron copies are now moving to the distribution points….Europe shipping should begin next week, US and Canada could take a little longer as they have to traverse the North Atlantic SLOC.
Oh well that’s it….The Convention Is Dead, Long Live to the Convention!
SITREP 20200730 1300 ZT: Following the tradition of the previous offensives, this one too was fast and bloody. 1985:DNL copies are gone, but stay tuned in the next few days for the fifty 1985:UAIS ones!
SITREP 20200804 1836 ZT: The 50 remaining copies of 1985: Under an Iron Sky – Third Echelon are now available on the product page!
Once again, Grognard Emeritus Kaya Moriya translated the whole “1985” set of rules into Japanese! Kudos to him!
1985: Under an Iron Sky – Third Echelon will begin production printing in a few days! As we’re going to mobilize several extra divisions to be used as strategic reserve for conventions and so on, it will be possible to order a copy for a few more days.
Last chance to Report For Duty, before KGB reports you!
After two years of worldwide unrest and open revolts, the TRL Central Committee finally surrendered to popular demand. A Third Echelon of 1985: Under an iron Sky will be mobilized.
As this will be a small and very expensive (on our side) print run, we are forced to change our usual “we just print it, you decide later” policy. Think about it as a sort of Kickstarter, with the difference that you’ll get your money back should things go wrong.
The minimum number of 200 ordered copies has already been reached, so Third Echelon is now MOBILIZED and nothing will stop it.
Here’s the Rules of Engagement:
Do your duty and enlist to defend the Rodina from the capitalist aggression! Move out to the front!
1985: Mutual Assured Destruction booklets allow to combine 1985: Under an Iron Sky and 1985: Deadly Northern Lights into a single, die-hard, collateral damage inducing campaign codenamed “To Shatter The Old World”.
Use at your own risk.
