This wargame is set in a hypothetical reality in which the Cuban Missile Crisis of 1962 was the beginning of a Third World War, a nuclear war between East and West.
Some of the few surviving nations allied themselves (like USA-United Kingdom and France-Germany), some others stay alone (like China and USSR) but all must now fight for the last uncontaminated zones and resources.
The games features two levels of fighting: strategical and tactical. You move armies in order to take over radars, resources points and cities. Turn by turn, you then fight on a real-time, tactical map, using the Blitzkrieg game engine.
The premise of the game is based on a potential outcome of the Cuban Missile Crisis, where on October 27th, 1962 a USAF U-2 spy plane is shot down over Cuba. The action leads to a nuclear exchange, causing multi million casualties across the globe. After the exchange, the war is continued by the USSR, Anglo-American Alliance, China and the European Alliance. Each faction, as played out in their campaigns are attempting to avoid the imminent nuclear winter, and scramble towards Africa, South America, Asia and the Pacific.
