Gauge Your Interest in the Iran-Iraq War

Zero for absolutely no interest, 10 for "I'm crazy for it".

Average score: 2.0

Wow, hardly any interest. What's wrong, no rules for chemical warfare or human wave mine clearing?

There were lots of Chieftains in the battles.

Interesting. While my interest in this conflict for wargaming is certainly not a 10, I think it is underrated. I see some good potential for some games. As a matter of fact, GHQ published a scenario for Micro Armor the Game. It had tanks on both sides plus helicopters as well. The equipment is also interesting as you have the Iraqis with a lot of Soviet kit and some other stuff vs the Iranians with mostly Western equipment.

My interest in doing this conflict at some point is probably around a 7 but I have other things such as Arab-Israeli and Cold War that have my attention now.

I am at a 9 for this conflict. Love the list of equipment that can be used, and the length of the war leads to many possible scenarios.

All that (relatively) modern hardware, and yet it quickly devolved to WW1.
With some of the Japanese Kamikaze spirit thrown in.
