DISCLAIMER: Illustrative educational game model. Country names are real, but arsenal figures, target lists, and kill probabilities are simplified, public, approximate order-of-magnitude abstractions for play, not real war plans, not classified data, and not a prediction engine.
Nuclear war is unsurvivable as policy. The system will often conclude: the only winning move is not to play.
