Just wondering... Why have Germans stopped at Ural?
The conquest of rest of USSR should have been a matter of time

Re: Vendetta - Under construction!
Very, very unlikely. In the beginning of WWII the commies in China were nothing more than a punch of rebels with two provinces (Xianyang and Yanan) and even during the war they weren't able to build up a strong military. The Japs were far superior in military as well as in economical terms, the Chinese would never be able to amass the troops and ships they would need to invade Japan. They weren't even able to build up the infrastructure or industry they would need for such an immense project.Originally posted by curtsibling
What if – The Japanese had been conquered by the communist Chinese?
But apart from this I would say this will become a great alt-history scen and I'm looking forward to it. Interesting ideasDance to Trance

Don't the Germans have a paratrooper or something?

Would be cool if they where whats popped up around a city that had fallen though... (but not in exessive numbers). But looking at the current unit placement that is not what they are for here.Originally posted by Palaiologos
And that "Buried tank turret" historically was only a desperate defense measure, why is it included in the scenario?. Looks really nice BTW.No Fighting here, this is the war room!Comment

Looks great Curt!
Your fertile imagination is matched only by your scenarios awesome graphics!
Really looking forward to this.

I agree.
One of course could asume that the comies won the chinese civil war long before the Japs invaded in 1931, and with help from the Soviet union they repulsed them.
Or that since Normady did happen in this alternative time line the allies had crushed Japanese power in the Pacific before that, and the communist chinese filled in the power vacum."Military training has three purposes: 1)To save ourselves from becoming subjects to others, 2)to win for our own city a possition of leadership, exercised for the benefit of others and 3)to exercise the rule of a master over those who deserve to be treated as slaves."-Aristotle, The Politics, Book VII

And speaking of the chinese i noticed the PA has only two unique units. Just a fighter and an infantry."Military training has three purposes: 1)To save ourselves from becoming subjects to others, 2)to win for our own city a possition of leadership, exercised for the benefit of others and 3)to exercise the rule of a master over those who deserve to be treated as slaves."-Aristotle, The Politics, Book VII

(I could be wrong)
More or less. They didn't use them in airborne operations anymore, but rather as elite light infantry.
They kicked allied ass at Monte Casino."Military training has three purposes: 1)To save ourselves from becoming subjects to others, 2)to win for our own city a possition of leadership, exercised for the benefit of others and 3)to exercise the rule of a master over those who deserve to be treated as slaves."-Aristotle, The Politics, Book VII

In this alternate world, Japan had received a mauling at the hands of the USA, who then pulled out to deal with strife on the homefront.
I guess Pericles has the right of it, we can imagine the Commies did get an upper hand,
and made the Japanese an offer they couldn't refuse, with soviet help...
The Germans have not went past the Urals because it was a natural border to the German ambitions of the Barbarossa campaign.
Sometime in the early 1950's we can assume that atomic bombs were hurled to finally end the resistance of the UK and Russia...
In Western Europe, a fear-filled peace now reigns,
In the East the Russians have pulled back to Vladisvostok and coduct operations from foward bases...
The Reich has turned the Urals into a mighty series of fortresses to repel the Russians
who are continuing a constant draining war from their bases in the East.
A searing atomic no man's land stretches from the Urals to Irkutsk.
No very nice to expand into, only fighting happens here!
About the scen itself;
It's about 60% done, I am working flat out to get the rules, map and other minor graphics into shape...
