On the other hand, I have a 'problem' with simulations of events such as the Spanish civil War because we know, comparatively, so little about the situations involved. That I believe is a fundamental difference. Give me a simulated Roman Legion to command and I could probably direct it in a virtual battle fairly accurately. In contrast, give me a Republican Militia Division from the Spanish Civil War and I don't think ANYONE would know what to do? reliable material just doesn't exist in large enough quantity to make the simulation reasonably accurate.

Just because a war didn't involve large amounts of US troops doesn't mean people know very little about it...to say a war fought so close to WWII had little to no coverage is an amazing comment to me.
Here's some sources on the conflict:
