Brings back memories!
I remember picking up this game as a kid, which I played in the late 80's on my family's 286 IBM Compatible PC. At the time I thought the concept was neat. It was my gateway drug to later grand strategy type games.
Tips: Start with Lebanon. Strong Defense, usually offensive wars are best avoided. Use espionage and covert ops to institute regime changes instead. All weapons suppliers appreciate loyalty. The more you buy, the more they offer. IMO the US has the best stuff, but any of the three NATO suppliers will do. If you want to go "rogue nation", buy from the private arms dealer; however if you do you'll drop in relations with the NATO countries.
