The Cold Cash War
by Robert Asprin
1977
Corporations no longer settle competition with paperwork alone. Asprin turns economic rivalry into literal warfare in a sharp, fast-moving science fiction satire that still feels unsettlingly plausible.
Cold Cash Warrior
by Robert Asprin
1989
Set in the corporate-war future of *The Cold Cash War*, this interactive adventure turns strategy into survival. Every choice pushes deeper into a world where business rivalry has become open combat.
Series background & context
Combat Command is a slightly different corner of the Robert Asprin shelf. Instead of a standard novel sequence, this page tracks material tied to his Cold Cash setting through an interactive, gamebook-style format.
The underlying world is the one introduced in The Cold Cash War, a future where corporations push competition into open conflict and economics starts looking a lot like battlefield strategy. That setting already has a hard, satirical edge, and Combat Command turns it into something readers can move through decision by decision.
So the appeal here is a little different from Asprin's usual fiction. You still get his interest in systems, conflict, and the absurd logic of institutions, but filtered through missions, choices, and tactical problem-solving. If you like seeing how one of his worlds can be adapted into a more game-shaped experience, this page gives that part of the shelf some useful context.
