I don't think of it as T2k at macro, the game is set up to cover too short a time period, and a Soviet attack, rather than a NATO one. The new printing from Compass does have more of a Poland map, though. The logistics rules would need a lot of rewriting to cover 1996-2000 operations, IMO.
It is very different in many ways as you point out. Still, it was something to simulate a NATO/WP conflict at the division level in a workable way.

I have not thought about Origins in years-was unaware it was still being held.

FTR our small gaming group looked briefly at GDW's Third World War but never took the plunge. We did play GDW and later GRD's Europa series though....
