Operation Flashpoint brings the player the most complex war game experience ever. It offers unprecedented freedom of action integrating command of larger squads and use of any available vehicles with total immersion. Operation Flashpoint simulates the best cold war military equipment - infantry, mobile, armored and aircraft.

Operation Flashpoint has won universal acclaim for its realism of simulating military conflict situations on PC, even to the extent where the game's technology has been adapted for real soldiers to use as a special combat training application VBS1 .

OFP: Cold War Crisis

As President Ronald Reagan begins his second term in the White House a little-known politician, Mikhail Gorbachev, becomes leader of the Soviet Union. Gorbachev is a reformer who wants to create a new era of peace and co-operation with the Western world. He uses terms like "Glasnost" and "Perestroika" - modernist policies which involve a re-structuring of the Soviet state and a move away from the old tensions of the Cold War.

Gorbachev's appointment causes immediate tensions; many of the Communist's old guard', from Generals to Regional Politicians, refuse to accept him and chaos ensues. After a few days the central government manages to control the situation and the country falls into an uneasy truce with itself. But in some outlying areas, often controlled by powerful men with their own agendas, the situation remains dangerously unclear and the Soviet Government loses any real sense of power.

One such area is the Malden Islands group: Everon, a peaceful independent republic, Malden itself, another independent state which contains an important NATO strategic base, and Kolguyev, a Soviet outpost controlled by General Ivan Vasilii Guba - an old-school Communist general who firmly believes in the harshest of Cold War policies. Guba has set himself up as some kind of feudal warlord from his stronghold on Kolguyev and refuses to listen to any orders from Moscow. The island has become a staging post for his well-equipped modern army to attempt to control the surrounding area and then… who knows?

OFP: Resistance

Operation Flashpoint: Resistance is the official expansion to Operation Flashpoint: Cold War Crisis . Resistance is set years before Operation Flashpoint's Cold War reached crisis point, and delivers a campaign which forms a prequel to the original game's plot.

The game casts the player as Victor Troska, an experienced ex-Special Forces soldier. Having turned his back on his military past, Troska has settled into respectable civilian life on an island just a short distance from the original game's three islands.

However, his situation changes when Soviet forces invade the island group, destroying Troska's idyllic dreams. Reluctant at first to return to a conflict situation, he is forced to participate in, and then lead, the ramshackle Resistance effort, which grows up in response to the Soviet occupation.
