Description Edit | History

(From the Box)

World Powers battle for control of the world using forces that include modern day tactical and nuclear weapons. But watch out! Launch too many missiles and the Earth is plunged into a dark and cold Nuclear Winter!... No one wins.

Exciting strategies with thought-provoking results.

Includes beginner's rules (Easy to Play) and Advanced rules which include such variations as - EMP Effect and a "Doomsday" Time Limit.

Players command conventional armies, ocean fleets, intra and inter-continental weapons to make combinations of land, sea and airborne attacks. Players attempt to occupy the most territories and control the World's population, resources and technology.

However, launching NUKES destroys territories thereby reducing the relative value of the victory. Could you survive? Would you want to?

(From the writer) This game is like playing risk with nuclear weapons. Once one player goes nuclear, it's a "MAD" game (mutual assured destruction). The real value of the game is in showing that nobody wins in a nuclear exchange. Currently OOP as far as I know.
