You might want to take a look at the "game" Balance of Power, available for
the Macintosh, and (I think) PC-DOS and Apple ][.  It pits the United States
against the USSR, each vying for "prestige" points, while avoiding the Big One.
It's very impressive in its level of detail, effort, and information.

I'd be willing to send you my original Mac version for a token fee - I'm not 
using it.  I believe I paid around $40 for it two years ago.
