CDV today unveiled the official site for Hammer & Sickle, their upcoming Cold-War era tactical RPG. The new site, located at http://www.hammer-sickle.com, contains artwork, news and game information on this highly anticipated RPG from the makers of Silent Storm.

Hammer & Sickle is a tactical RPG set in the spring of 1949. The player will assume the role of a top Soviet spy on clandestine duty in the British-American controlled sector of Germany during the early years of the budding Cold War. In a world where no one is quite who they appear to be, the player is trapped in a hellish plot that could trigger a third world war, this time between the United States and Soviet Union and their respective nuclear arsenals. Gamers will have to navigate a web of intrigue and make decisions that could determine the fate of the world.
