The V-Bombers
You are Commander in Chief, Bomber Command and responsible for the United Kingdom's nuclear deterrent forces of Victor and Vulcan bombers and the American made PGM-17 Thor Intermediate Range Ballistic Missiles (IRBM). For whatever reason, deterrence has failed and a full-scale nuclear exchange with the Soviet Union and its allies has begun.
The situation is actually the same war as depicted in my previous Deter, Detect, Defend 1962 and Wargasm 1962 but now you get to play as the RAF attacking the Soviet Union.
Features include variable missile readiness, diversion airfields, limited weapons and London getting nuked repeatedly. The player receives points for destroying Soviet cities but loses them for every British city destroyed plus more for the destruction of the Windscale nuclear site and the atomic weapons development centre at Aldermaston. There is no defence from the Soviet missiles and the Player should quickly find him/herself deep in a VP hole. Do you use your Thors to destroy the Soviet PVO so your bombers have a shot at the cities or expend your missiles to even the score?
The scenario should be complete and the events have been tested but of course there are always errors of commission or omission that creep in. Would really like feedback to calibrate the scoring and assess difficulty but identifying problems will be appreciated. Thanks in advance for any tests.
