About the Game

In an alternate 1985, Soviet tanks rolled across the West German border…but that wasn’t the only battleground the Superpowers came to blows. One of these battlegrounds was Scandinavia. This scenario pack is Volume 1 of a new series meant to address the question “What is occurring in these “Other Fires” of the Third World War. The scenarios cover tank battles, small commando raids meant to shape the fate of nations, and everything in between!

Contents of Volume 1:

12 scenarios for a variety of rules systems (tested with Ambush Alley and Arc of Fire, but playable with any rules set) Meticulously researched Squad and Platoon-level tables of organization and equipment for Norway, Sweden, and Finland, as well as the British Royal Marine Commandos and Soviet VDV, with input from the veterans themselves! Suggestions for special rules meant to reflect the conditions of the far north. Notes for where to find miniatures suitable for games with these scenarios!

Come explore some of the other fighting that might have broken out in a Third World War, and see what might have happened if the Red Star advanced south under the White Lights!
