MIRVs and ABMs too :D

[Baloogan]

ABM Lasers also! Nuke bombs! Nuke torps! Nuke depth charges! Nuke cruise missiles! Nukes, from Little Boy and Fat Man all the way to sats to detect ICBMs in their launch phase!

Soviets really liked nuke tipped anti ship missiles : )

You forgot nuclear tipped air-to-air missiles!

[Baloogan]

Ahaha! I wonder how in the world I forgot those... :)

you've got to love the Cold War. Those crazy bastards put nukes on everything. Mortars, bazookas, briefcases, WTF!?!?!

Mortars and bazookas? What was the thinking there? Did either side get tac-nukes down to a blast radius that would be inside a mortar or bazooka firing range, or are these fairly strange suicide devices?

Wow, I had no idea we got blast radii down to 500 feet.

I would love to get into a limited nuclear exchange and then fight some conventional battles with what's left

1950s kit is great for that : ) I've been working on a 1950s alternate history where huge nuclear naval confrontations between the USSR and Allied forces occur.

I  am reading a book called "arc light" about a limited nuclear exchange between the US and Russia in 1993. A conventional war follows. Would love some modern scenarios where I have to send B1-b strikes against soviet airbases or carrier borne nuclear strikes against Russian naval bases...plus a few ICBM strikes against Russian bases

[Dimitris]

Make them  :D . The tools are all right there!

[mikeck]

Yeah, I tried before...didn't come out well trying to get the enemy script down. I'm not good at that stuff. That's why I buy games with scenarios!

lethal rad dosage at 500 feet.  the blast radius was a bit bigger.  ;)

instantly lethal radiation dosage (in excess of 10,000 rem) within 500 feet (150 m), and a probably fatal dose (around 600 rem) within a quarter mile (400 m)
