This listing is for materials (see the list below for the non-counter materials) meant to improve the play of World War 3 (SPI).  This Variant Counter Set includes 260+ beautifully done Variant Counters.  Included are 200+ counters for the three additional powers (only one of the power is shown below) mentioned in the World War 3 scenarios, but for which SPI provided no counters for!  Also included (see the enlargeable picture below) for added "pop" are ICBM counters for both the US and USSR plus counters for nuclear blasts.  The counters are the standard 1/2" square size (as are the game's original counters) with vivid laser printed colors!  Some to all of the non-counter materials may emailed upon shipment of your purchase.  
      
  The counters will be shipped individually cut rather than in uncut sheets.  The color shades of the actual counters may differ from those seen on your monitor.  Variant counters are sent to professional printers to produce a high quality product.
                        
Please note our two other listings for World War 3.  The first is for the 600+ counters to replace the drab originals included in the original game.  The second includes all of the items and Variant Counters from our listings for WW3 materials (over 800 counters in all) at a much lower price than if purchased separately!
       
Also included is the following (some of which will be downloadable from links sent in an email):
     
The 13 page article "World War Three" from Strategy & Tactics #47 (Nov. 1974) giving the SPI take on the situation while the game was being developed.
               
8 pages and 2 extra scenarios including the official 1962 Cuban Missile Crisis Scenario from Moves #9 and an Invasion America Scenario.
           
4 pages of Q&A with the Master James Dunnigan! 
          
4 pages of unofficial errata.
        
World War 3 designed by James Dunnigan is a simulation of hypothetical scenarios of global conflict in the 70's and 80's.  Six scenarios of varying length and complexity are included for 2 to 3 players.  Lots of play variability as potential allies of each side may randomly not decide to join the hostilities!  Victory conditions depend on the particular scenario, though generally involve having the greater number of Industrial Hexes - functioning ones that is, as the losing side may decide to escalate the conflict by launching ICBMs!

       
Purchasing this list is an agreement not to duplicate for the purposes of resale any of the variant counters received.

              
Please note there is a $4.00 handling fee for this purchase. The fees charged do not fully compensate the labor and materials necessary to process a purchase. Purchases will ship within 5 business days.

Smells Great! Very Messy.
I'm so glad I did a trial run with this spray just before showering. That choice turned a disaster into an amusing inconvenience. The Good stuff: This product smells amazing. Probably the best colored hair spray I've ever smelled. The spray has good coverage. I wasn't trying for full coverage when I did my test, but I was impressed by how evenly I was able to apply the color. It dries really fast, without stickiness. The red color is bold and vibrant, with no orange undertones. So far, so good, right? The Bad stuff: Getting into the safety cap required using a box cutter. Simple twisting or scissors didn't work at all. But that was a one-time issue, so I could overlook it. But this product is MESSY. It covers well. Too well. When I sprayed my hair, the overspray also covered my chest and back. My torso looks like burned meat. If I hadn't been preparing to shower, whatever clothes I'd been wearing would have been ruined. There are no instructions on the packaging about how to avoid overspray. And it isn't just a tiny amount of overspray, either. My torso is about 60% covered. In addition to that, once the spray is used for the first time, the can leaks, getting red dye all over my hands, and dripping down onto the counter. Unacceptably messy.

Lightweight Tinted Sunscreen With Great Coverage—Perfect for Summer
Size: 1.7 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
This has quickly become my go‑to face sunscreen for summer. I’m a redhead - so finding great sun protection that also looks great is a challenge. It offers excellent sun protection with a natural‑looking tint that evens out my skin tone without feeling heavy. The coverage is just enough to look polished while still feeling breathable. I like to set it with a translucent face powder (also SPF), and the combination looks smooth, lasts well, and never feels greasy or cakey. It applies easily, blends well, and leaves my skin looking fresh and put‑together. Perfect for everyday wear when I want protection, light coverage, and a natural finish in one step.

Good coverage - good value
Size: 1.7 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
This is the first facial sunscreen I've found that does not cause me to feel overheated or confined! If you know this feeling you know what I'm talking about. I am 68, with OK skin, fair but a little color from the sun, and this tint is really good. It doesn't cover the age, it just dulls the evidence. My only negative is the container. After about two uses the pump stopped working. I had to pry off the top and pour lotion into a different container. I will buy this again. Good value for the money.

Dermatologist-Recommended, Gentle Coverage with Added Sun Protection
Size: 1.7 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Size: 1.7 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
This Eucerin Tinted Moisturizer was recommended to me by my dermatologist after having MOHS surgery performed on my face twice. At that point, sun protection became non-negotiable. He felt that the moisturizer with SPF 30 that was already part of my skincare routine was not sufficient on its own and suggested adding this product for better daily protection. I’m so glad I followed his advice. This tinted moisturizer provides lightweight, natural-looking coverage that evens out my skin tone without feeling heavy or settling into fine lines. It blends easily and leaves my skin looking healthy and polished, not made-up. What I appreciate most is how hydrating and gentle it is. My skin can be sensitive, especially after procedures, and this has caused no irritation or breakouts. It wears comfortably all day and layers well with other skincare products when needed. The coverage is sheer, so it won’t replace foundation if you want full coverage, but it’s perfect for everyday wear and gives me the confidence to step out with minimal makeup while knowing my skin is protected. I would highly recommend this to anyone who has sensitive skin, a history of skin cancer or procedures, or who simply wants reliable sun protection with a natural finish.

The Lazy Makeup Day MVP
Size: 1.7 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
This has become my easy low-maintenance face day product. It gives just enough tint to even things out while still giving solid SPF coverage, so I can skip foundation without feeling totally bare-faced. The finish feels lightweight, my skin stays comfortable all day, and the color blended into my skin way better than I expected from a “universal” tint.
