It was an allusion to the movie War Games.

Air Superiority was also one of our favorites.

"A strange game" is also an allusion to War Games.

WOPR: "A strange game. The only winning move is not to play. How about a nice game of chess?"

Well that's embarrassing.
That was a hard enough to catch reference that I felt the need to post that I "got" it.

I played a lot of A&A in the early 90s, as well as DnD.
