Year: 1949 | Genre: Alternate History / Geopolitical Grand Strategy / Cold War Turns Hot

The world has not known peace since the day Stalin launched his blood-soaked bid to export Communism across Europe. With the Great Depression crippling the West, the Red Army stormed Poland, Finland, and the Baltics before unleashing chaos in Italy, Spain, and Germany. The “Red Curtain” fell on Europe long before anyone could stop it.

In the East, Stalin’s neglect of the Far East opened the gates for a strange alliance: Chinese Nationalists, Imperial Japan, the British Empire, and the United States formed the Anti-Soviet Coalition, halting Soviet advances at the cost of unimaginable devastation.

Now in 1949, the world is split. From the People's Federated Europe to the Arctic Line of the Scandinavian Federation, the globe is a powder keg of proxy wars, insurgencies, nuclear brinkmanship, and covert operations.

Choose your faction. Command your forces. Make alliances, crush revolutions, or fan the flames of rebellion. Every decision shapes the world.

Can you end the Red War—or ignite its final, apocalyptic chapter?
