DEFCON 1

A totally asymmetrical game about the Cold War from 1950 to 1990, with historically based cards and technologies. Each of the five blocs has distinct strengths and weaknesses, its own technology tree, missions, objectives, and unit pool. Players collect resources from controlled zones, research technologies, influence political control, produce and upgrade units, and conduct naval and land warfare. As the DEFCON level decreases, further options become available, including nuclear weapons at DEFCON 1. A Space Race provides additional influence and technologies, while player counts introduce different structures such as secret objectives, semi-cooperation, and shifting confrontations.
