What is this tactical war game from 80's?

Hi, I desperately need to recognize a PC game from the 80's. I only remember the following details of the game:

-it was a tactical war game that looked a bit like Ultima. The idea was to invade some kind of fortresses etc. by moving soldiers.

-in the beginning you chose a character from maybe 10 possibilites. I think one of them was a guy called Crazy Ivan and one was female

-the game started with DOS commands, which were something like: xelok2 war etc.

I know this is not a lot of information but I hope someone would remember something... Anyway, thanks in advance!

that's an fps. and it was released in the 90s.

sounds a bit like jagged alliance, but that was in the 90s as well... one of the mercenaries that you could hire in that game was called ivan, but i don't remember him being crazy...

the game is Command and Conquer, just Command and Conquer...i have it and the girls name is TanyaFou4

i think i found it! the ancient art of war. i just googled crazy ivan, came upon wikipedia, and there it listed several games featuring a character named crazy ivan. it was released in 1984.

Dude, you're my hero forever :D That's exactly the game I was looking for!!! Thanks a ton :) I just feel so stupid now because I googled Crazy Ivan, too, but since the article was about something completely different, I didn't find it necessary to read through the whole article and therefore missed the part of "Other uses"... Well, at least I know better next time... Anyway, thanks again, fireandcloud, you made my day!
