'74_01s: Red Tide Across Fulda - MC 02 Fulda Gap '85

Fulda Gap, West Germany, June 10th 1974: In October of 1973 war erupted in the Middle East. This war, known as the Yom Kippur War, was a conflict that brought the United States and the Soviet Union closer to the brink of war than at any time since the Cuban missile crisis has begun. This hypothetical variation assumes that hostilities between the Soviet Union and United States superpowers have deteriorated to the point of full scale intervention. The intervention in the Yom Kippur War set off the war in Europe the following year. [Size: very large] Designer's notes: This scenario is the first to explore the theory that either side had a significant edge over the other at certain periods of time during the Cold War. For more enjoyment, play this scenario along with, or following, play of the #73_01c_Campaign_full scenario in my Middle East '67 1973 campaign expansion pack. Explicit supply is possible. Original scenario (1985) created by Joerg Lissa.
