I never really understood the logic behind the final scenarios, either. Not mentioning that a strategic nuclear exchange probably wouldn't be an extinction-level event (close for the targeted nations but not necessarily for the world), I never got how the player sinking a boomer would lead to the collapse of the Soviet Union.
Also, reading game files, I saw a reference to endings where NATO either withdraws all naval assets from the North Atlantic (what???) or the player gets arrested and deported to a Soviet gulag, how would that be triggered?
