If the Cuban Missile Crisis had not been peacefully resolved, how would the resulting war have unfolded?

Question

Doing a little research for a project featuring a fictitious "cold war turning hot" scenario where the nuclear war everyone feared actually happens.

I was wondering how things would progress if , for example, the USA had invaded Cuba or if a Soviet vessel had attacked the blockade.

Presumably there would have been the massive nuclear attacks, but did either the USA or USSR have any plans in particular, for example any key targets?

Also, I've read that the Soviets intended to fight a conventional ground war to capture the devastated western regions of Europe, did NATO have a plan to counter this? What would have happened to Berlin?

Thoughts anyone...?
