Actually if you want to play against the PLAN Veterans and Russian Military Veterans, then the game you want is Conflict of Nations. They frequently both break the “English only” rules and write in their native language so you have to use the internet translator to figure out their colorful metaphors at times (he-he-he, doing my part for international relations).
