“Restraint? Why are you so concerned with saving their lives? The whole idea is to kill the bastards. At the end of the war, if there are two Americans and one Russian left alive, we win.” ~Gen. Thomas Power, U.S. Strategic Air Command 1957-1964
19XX: The inconceivable becomes reality. Nuclear devastation scorches the Earth bare. The seas turn toxic for countless years ahead. Just one liveable region endures: Antarctica. Humanity's survivors cluster together in a delicate network of scientific outposts and vessels housing refugees. Yet even in this final sanctuary, the Cold War persists. And our species might not endure.
In Meltwater, two participants control what remains of the world powers, vying for dominion over the frozen terrain. Straightforward mechanics without dice enable players to force back, trap, and segregate their rival's survivors. In this realm, starvation proves deadlier than bullets, and the stark wasteland sustains only limited numbers. Each round, radiation creeps inward from the shore, diminishing viable territory and driving the adversaries ever closer.
Ultimately, there exists only capitulation or extinction, and whatever remains of civilisation.
