About the Game

"SAC: All Out Nuclear War Against the Soviet Union, 1962" is an introductory level, low complexity wargame simulation. It portrays a “what if” attack by the US Strategic Air Command (SAC) against the USSR. The premise of the game is that the Cuban “missile crisis” escalated to an all-out nuclear war between the Cold War protagonists. The game is designed for two players, one taking on the role of the attacking US forces and the other the defending air defense forces of the Soviet Union. The game can also be played solitaire. The SAC game's design is based on the classic NORAD game, published over four decades ago by Conflict Magazine and Simulations, and designed by Dana Lombardy. My design is a tribute to that classic, but with the gaming perspective "switched" and some new rules "tweaks".
