The Paradox Interactive Forums kick off a new series of developer diaries for East vs. West: A Hearts of Iron Game, their upcoming military strategy follow-up. The post is written by project leader Lennart Berg and game designer Gellert Keresztes, who go into detail on how the game will allow players to attempt to succeed against the pressure-packed backdrop of the Cold War. They promise to continue to post such diaries on a monthly basis until the game is released in Q2 of next year, and accompany the article with a new trailer introducing the game.
