Wow, I just looked at the scen and it's looking great! 
Just one [hypothetical] question though: if I nuke every city in the USA, as well as destroying all their airbases and subs, how will there be any MAD? Without MAD it's unrealistic.

Ready to go. Like I said in the other forum, China will stop at nothing to achieve the ambitions of the ruling party... er... I mean, the legitimate aspirations of the chinese people and their comrades around the world.

To be honest, at least in the first turn you don´t have enough nuclear bombs to nuke every USA city. However, i understand your point... and I think that i can´t do anything to solve that. That´s how civ2 works.
Don´t you remember our civfanatics History PBEM? You strike first, you destroyed Germany. Did germanos have a chance to counterattack? NO
And we are talking about a WW1 game...
Anyway, I think that signing a Non-proliferation treaty would be a nice start...

To be honest, i had some problems with maximum range movement, road multiplier...
And a few minutes ago, i noticed that some units (especially armoured vehicles) don´t have "enough" movement capacity...
Do you think that I should increase the movement of some units?

Please, this game is only for MULTIPLAYER.
SINGLEPLAYER game can lead you to a nuclear war in the first turn.
Well... it seems we need a new NATO player

I'd volunteer, but except for knowing which time period it is, I have no clue about the scenario. Plus, it would be my first PBEM game.

Academia, the best way to combat against nuking every city and having no way to retaliate is to have an event...
If a USSR or USA nuke is destroyed by the opposition, then create a new one, and it doesn't have to be created in a city or airbase necessarily because it would still have the movement on the next turn.
Also, I would love to play this, let me know of any new openings.

Communist rebels have overthrown the governments of Sweden and Finland, and the two nations have sworn their allegiance to the Soviet Bloc. Warsaw Pact troops are now taking defensive positions in Helsinki, Stockholm, and Malmo.
