Over the years, I as a German was in Wolgograd (ex. Stalingrad) , Rostov on Don, Moscow, Kiev, in Luanda, Angola in the heat of the civil war, in Vietnam... 11 years after the war... and I have a more bad feeling when i see such "Simulations" from military stuff. It is one thing "to play" those kind of things and another to get involved in the real stuff or after the war to see what happend. I was by myself active draftee Soldier on the false side, the NVA, the National Peoples Army in the last year of it´s existence. Every man in the NVA was in September/Oktober 1989 very allone with one question. With the question what to do if we became the order to fight against our own people in Leipzig, in November 1989, days before the wall was broken... This is one thing, that bothers me for the rest of my live and I am so happy, that the end for the GDR was faster, as this scenario. In reality, nobody in the east german army was involved. The biggest thing ever in the history off all german army´s was, that the NVA, a true german army does nothing 1989 to save Honecker and Co. and the GDR ... but this historical point of view is in Germany long forgotten and not recognized. They let us, the soldiers in 1989 in the National Peoples Army with this question alone. We old hands from the NVA are not happy about this. Without the courage of our man, 1989 in East Germany to do nothing but some sabotage that we as a combat engineer-unit capable to destroy barricades cant go to Leipzig, it had been a bloodbath. The stress for us was (end sometimes is, if i see "documentations" about "the Eastgerman revolution 1989") a real factor.
The most worse simulation in my eyes is from Russia. "Syrian warfare."
