Battlelesson^TM #8

The “Go Code” has been received and the war plan decoded; it is time to turn your B-52 into Soviet air space, and head for your primary target. You’ve got 50,000 lbs. of fuel, two H-bombs, a crew looking to you for leadership, and a mission that your country needs you to fulfill.

Toe-to-Toe Nu’klr Combat with the Rooskies is a fast-playing solitaire game. You decide the payload, pick your targets and must then challenge the Soviet Union's defenses.

SAMs (surface-to-air missiles) and MiG-21 fighter/ interceptors will find you as you cross “The Big Board.” Events will relentlessly dog you and your crew as the fate of America, even the world, rests on your shoulders. A single mission can be accomplished in about 15 minutes, or take an hour for the whole campaign game. Take a darkly humorous trip in a less-than-serious game exploding with atomic fun.
