Paradox Interactive announces Supreme Ruler: Cold War is gold, and BattleGoat Studios' pre-perestroika installment in this strategy series is expected to be available on July 19. Word is: "As leader of the United States or the Soviet Union, you must make the correct Economic, Diplomatic, Domestic and Military decisions to successfully navigate your country through this dangerous historical era and increase your nation’s Sphere of Influence on the world stage." The full announcement is fairly short, so it follows in its entirety.
