I rember a few things about it, but not the name, but heck i was six. this has been bothering me for quite a while as i would like to try to find it.

I remember it was a little like advance wars, though much more basic... there was a main map and it involved armies fighting moving them into positions and such. Each space on the map was a pentagon. Also I remember one of the battles was called a tale of two cities.

Thanks if anyone knows :)

North and South, Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Nobunaga's Ambition?

Give us a general time period it took place in.

Sounds like Conflict.

edit: Screens http://www.vgmuseum.com/images/nes/01/conflict.html

Might also be Desert Commander http://www.vgmuseum.com/images/nes/01/desertcommander.html

I was gonna suggest desert commander too psyclerk, but as always, someone else one cag beat me too it. I think that is the basis for everyone here pretty much

Since it's NES, it obvious can't be Famicom Wars.
Since he's comparing it to the Wars series, it more likley that it's a somewhat modern military sim.

So far, I'd have to agree with Psyclerk's guesses.

I was a huge Desert Commander fan. But this has to be Conflict, because Desert Commander didn't use pentagons.

Hopefully you won't experience childhood-game-memories-vs-modern-reality-letdown syndrome. Some old games that I remember loving are still awesome, but others, man, I don't know what I was thinking back in the day.

All of those "______ Games" games are going to be a big let down today. They're about as good as the Olympic titles that come out for modern consoles. Do you play those? Neither does anybody else. There's a reason.
