I'm not a war gamer (Steam is my favourite game these days) but I've played Maria and it is brilliant. I wish it could play within 90 minutes though.

Those of you who played Twilight Struggle might also know of a similar game called "1960: The Making of the President". First time I played that I was Kennedy and beat my opponent (Nixon). By one seat. Absolutely exciting!

We had a tradition of playing 1960 on election night. Great game, and complex enough to play it as 2v2. With running mates.
A fantastic "1960: The Making of the President" video review http://www.shutupandsitdown.com/videos/v/review-1960-the-mak...
Sadly 1960 is out of print and pain to try and get a copy of.
