From publisher blurb:
There are still events going on in Tunguska…
Sometime in the late 1960s, the Soviet government, secretly in turmoil in the face of rapidly advancing American technology and global influence, desperately sought ways to even the score without triggering a nuclear conflict, but with devastating effects, nonetheless. Their chance came when reports of strange phenomena began filtering in from the vicinity of the 1908 Tunguska Event, in the wake of a severe electrical storm, of mysterious deaths and disappearances, strange creatures loose in the forests, and other weirdness. A team from the Soviet Academy of Sciences was sent to investigate. Less than 72 hours later, a garbled distress call prompted the mobilization of a special Red Army detachment and some of Russia’s top scientists from the State Committee of Science and Technology.
What the scientists found might thrust the Soviet Union into the forefront of all other countries…or make it the threshold of worldwide disaster. Meanwhile, scientists and soldiers alike struggle to keep the deadly secret of their discovery.
Cold War: Containment is a contemporary horror micro-campaign setting for 2D6 RPGs such as Cepheus Engine and the Original Science Fiction Roleplaying Game (OSFRPG).
