Spread of Communism was one of my favorite map games, and I'd like to revive it again.

Now both the first and the second had major problems: The first, all the mods left, so there was no UK, US, USSR, or China.

In the second, this problem was less major but a new problem arose: the Commies couldn't do a thing.

So, for the third one, I'd like to have an actual POD: The USSR streaks across Europe following WWII.

The POD is simple: the Berlin crisis... gets worse.

It's 1951, and for the free world, excrement is hitting the fan. During the Berlin crisis, a clash between US and USSR soldiers got serious, and it developed into a full scale conflict. The USSR smashed forces into Berlin, and the Allies were thrown back, falling back, disorganized ,into France, losing Alsace Lorraine. For a few months they are able to hold the line and even push the USSR back, but then the Soviets think up of a Master plan. Secret teams of soldiers infilitrate Belgium and start a civil war, between the north and south (Flanders, Wallonia), then invade, conquering it in 2 weeks- but opening a passage to northern france in just 2 days. The Allied troops attempt to manuever and face the enemy, but they are not fast enough. 70% of the army manages to retreat: the remainder are surrounded and either wiped out or captured.

Meanwhile, in Japan, many troops are sent to aid the troops in France, which are now in the town of Brest and swiftly evacuting to Britain. The commander of the Allied troops is thus unable to stops the Soviet invasion that fells japan. In Korea, the North Korean troops have completely wiped out South Korea, and China is now fully communist.

It would appear, then, that the spread of communism... is total.
