A SCUD-C CEP is around one kilometer, which means that it can fall anywhere on a typical SPMBT map and there is no way to reproduce that kind of inaccuracy even if one wanted.
Therefore it cannot be done in the game, just as it cannot be used for such purpose in reality.
Pretty much the only kind of such weapons that might fit the game engine, game scope and reality would be something along the lines of some variants of the Iskander and similar weapons.
With both terminal guidance and conventional warheads capable of affecting area targets (cluster for example) it might conceivably be used for a SPMBT engagement.
