Rob,

Very nice!

According to Kevin Dockery, he wrote a paper theorising the Soviets were deploying warheads that could deliver bio-warfare packages. That element, plus the inclusion of BZ grenades raised some official eyebrows.

Not all of the target and missile data jives with real life! Not to mention the weapons are not MIRVs but MRVs and not independently targeted. And a lot of crucial sites are left off the list. The latter can be "taken care of" by assigning some of the warheads the PD is allowed to allocate.

One assumption is that the Soviet bomber fleet would be caught on the ground by the surprise/accidental strike.
