Strategy & Tactics #56
Revolt in the East
Warsaw Pact Rebellion in the 1970's
Revolt in the East is a corps/army level simulation of the consequences of a possible revolt of the Warsaw Pact member nations and of the reactions of the Soviet Union and of the NATO allies. Also included in Revolt in the East are Scenarios dealing with the Hungarian Revolution of 1956 and of the Soviet invasion of Czechoslovakia in 1968.
The core of the game is the Warsaw Pact Revolt Table. It represents our “guesstimate of a chain-reaction revolt of the East-bloc, given that a revolt arises in one of those nations in the first place. /the system is biased to produce an East German revolt, which draws in NATO. This is, in fact, the “worst case” from a Soviet viewpoint: a rebellion that produces a re-unified Germany.
