The Bear Marches West: 12 Scenarios for 1980s NATO vs Warsaw Pact Wargames

by Russell Phillips

Overview

NATO kept the Warsaw Pact behind the Berlin Wall until its dissolution - but what if it hadn't?

The Bear Marches West contains 12 wargame scenarios set during a fictional Warsaw Pact invasion of West Germany in the 1980s. All the scenarios are based on battles depicted in well-known novels, and are designed to be used with whatever rules the players wish.

Each scenario includes the battle's context, weather conditions, deployments, force lists and a colour map. The scenarios range in scale from small skirmishes, with a company on each side, to large engagements, with Soviet regiments bearing down on smaller but better-equipped NATO units.
