Maciej Szopa's "Eagles and Missiles" is a "what-if" wargame, which allows the players to play out a hypothetical strike of the Union State of Belorussia and Russia on Poland in the near future. The game is mainly concerned on the air aspect of such a conflict. Land battles, naval operations and special forces are included, but serve mainly as a background of the air war. The Polish player manages his squadrons and sends them against enemy troop concentrations with bombers and ground-attack aircraft, engages the enemy aicraft with his fighters, and decides about the use of his air-defence assets... hoping for the timely arrival of NATO squadrons coming to his aid. The "Agresor" commands ground forces, supports them with his aircraft squadrons and tries to destroy the Polish airforce, or at least take out its airbases. The idea behind Eagles and Missiles is based on scenarios being considered by the Polish staff and tested on big field war games such as: Anakonda and Dragon. Like in the real-world simulations the invasion is performed from three directions: the Baltic (naval invasion), Kaliningrad District and Belorussia. The main objective of the attack is the Polish "lifeline" of Upper Silesia, Warsaw and Gdansk.
