Very interesting reading regarding "Cold War Gone Hot" scenarios

Not sure if this has been posted before, but I'm finding this paper fascinating.  I was researching WWIII scenarios for use with SF2 terrains when I found this.

 

It basically explains a conventional war between NATO and Warsaw Pact forces in the mid to late 80's...without either side resorting to nukes.  It explains what led up to the conflict, and the political atmosphere that allowed it to happen.  I've now got some good ideas for campaigns!

Given the time and background there must be some influence on RSR there.
