Nuclear Proliferation (card game)

If the player does not reveal a carrier for the nuclear missile, then play continues clockwise.

In 1980 Flying Buffalo bought the rights to the game and published a boxed set.

Mark Rouleau reviewed The Wizard's Grimoire in White Wolf #45 (July, 1994), rating it a 3 out of 5 and stated that "Players of Nuclear War and/or Nuclear Escalation should find this game to be a worthwhile supplement.
