RE: WMD in MC; negative values
I think the whole argument that NATO/the allies would never use WMD's first but WP would is somewhat naive. I would think that NATO countries were just as likely to strike first as the soviets given the right set of circumstances. The chances of WP launching first strike unless they are seriously under threat is ridiculous, as history and the cold war has proved to us.
It would make more sense to have both NATO and WP have the option to launch WMD's. Maybe it could be tied to optional rules which would see loss of troops and reinforcements from the country where the strike is made or reduction in supply to represent political backlash.
The whole idea soviets are evil bad men intent on the destruction of the West is just an idea from a comic book. They are just average people like all the rest of us, mostly good ones trying to do the best for their fellow country men with a few bad ones, just same as the rest of us.
