What happened

The public campaign brief places nuclear escalation over the resistance as a strategic threat. The exact trigger conditions remain outside the public file, but the risk changes how Wolf must weigh tactical victories against consequences far beyond a single raid.

Why the event matters in the wider war

Wyoming’s strategic geography and missile infrastructure mean local actions can carry national-level consequences in a war already involving nuclear attacks.

What changes afterward

Every major resistance decision carries an additional escalation cost, forcing Wolf and Elle to balance revenge, survival, and preservation of what remains of the country.

Cross-links and downstream significance

STRATEGIC WARNING // Public detail confirms the escalation threat but not a specific launch event; no nuclear exchange is invented here.
