About This Game
"The Third World War: Alternative Naval Ruleset", published by Compass Games in Paper Wars #106, is an alternative set of naval rules developed by Dominic Warren, Greg Warren, and Eric Farago. Some rules include adding and adjusting naval zones, a map overlay depicting the new Danish Straits naval zone, allowing the Soviets to send raiders to interdict NATO supply lines (affecting the number of NATO stacking points that are unsupplied), and having the Soviet and Polish naval divisions break down into regiments.
