If you’re ever in the Tampa, FL area, take a couple of hours to visit the S.S. American Victory. Built in 55 days and launched in 1945, she hauled military cargo to the Philippines and China during WWII, and also served in Korea and Vietnam. She’s a floating museum and training ship for first responders now. The American Victory is one of three remaining Victory ships. Well worth the time!
Interesting possible WW3 scenarios during the 1980's

While this is interesting information, it would be a long road to go from these scenarios to games with special rules, set-ups, turn orders, etc…
Good background item, not quite game-ready.

Read then pages 39 to about 42. Indications show clearly numbers of divisions and reinforcement rates over time. So if WW3 broke out in the late 1980’s , you would have some raw info on how each could produce and deploy.

1980’s however was a strange time for both sides and NATO and USSR were losing allies left and right and neither side wanted to engage in conflict so both sides tried to downsize their military while also trying to scare the other side.
