About

This is the issue game for Strategy & Tactics magazine #94. Nordkapp is a two player game covering potential warfare between NATO and the USSR in the area of Scandinavia north of the Arctic Circle. The game presumes this action to be part of a general European war taking place in the late 1980's. The focus of the game is the Soviet attempt to secure airfields in Norway in order to extend the range of Soviet naval aviation to dominate the North Atlantic sea lanes. The map scale is 16 kilometers per hex and the timescale is 48 hours per turn. Game components consist of one 22" x 32.5" mapsheet, 200 counters, and a 16-pages rules booklet.
