All comments, error reports, or suggested changes are warmly welcomed and considered!
Please feel free to post your comments and I will do what I can!
ALL THE DICTATOR2 MGE PLAYTESTERS ARE WELCOME! - And everyone else!
So without any more of my gibberish: Here is the Beta Zip for playtesting!
Game Files
Sounds 1
Sounds2
The full version will have a proper title image, thank-you list and readme file!
How to Install:
Y'all know the score, make a Soviet Steel Folder with a Sound folder within...
Extract files to the proper areas, Then you are good to go!
Make sure you have your CIV2 instant advice option activated!
The advisors will have plenty of new things to say.
Jump in and have a bash!
UPDATE!
BUG-FIX PATCH FOR BETA VERSION IS HERE!

Put the files in your existing Soviet Steel folder.
I'll let you guess where the Wav file goes...
It shouldn't kill your save games, but starting a new one is probably best if you don't have 'delevent' handy...
Thanks to all who made comments!
Let me know if these fixes are better!

Howdy, chaps.
Firstly, keep in mind that this is a hypothetical WW3 scenario.
And also I am keeping my options open for a 7th civ, perhaps China...
Synopsis:
After the successful assassination of Hitler in July 1944, Germany was flung into revolution headed by the Army to break the power of the SS.
The rebellious General Corps, led by Erwin Rommel of the German Panzerwaffe, took control of Berlin and called for an immediate surrender.
Germany was put under swift Allied protection by the UK and USA, and the other Allied powers.
Warfare in the Eastern front fizzled out. Work on increasing Germany's defences began immediately.
The duration of the war had seen the Russian dictator transform from the genial 'Uncle Joe' to a nightmare figure of tyranny and oppression...
Being excluded from the post-war deals of the Allies and Germany, the USSR was immediately belligerent.
A furious Stalin felt cheated by the Western Allies. Secretly, he planned vengeance and to finish the work of the Soviet Revolution.
This entailed domination of the European continent under the baleful 'Communist Democratic peace'...War against the Allied powers...
Obviously this threat must be challenged.
Hence, why Germany and neighbouring Poland have became the focus of a massive military build-up between the two power blocs...
Incidents of note from 1944 to 1950...
1944: German capitulation and formal armistice with Allies.
1945: Russian and Allied fortifications spring up across Polish/German border.
1946: The disbanded Wehrmacht was reformed as the much-reduced and democratically-oathed Landswehr,
1946: The guilty parties and nazis were dealt with by the noose, the SS and other villians being arrested or vanishing.
1947: Rommel joined the other leaders in Europe in turning Germany into a vast bulwark against the growing hostility of the USSR and Stalin.
1947: The USA has pledged to go to war in defence of Europe's liberty, the UK and other European powers have agreed to defend too.
1947: The state of Israel was formed and immediately was under pressure from hostile neighbours...
1948: The Nations of Europe are banded together in an alliance of mutual defence, headed and in many cases supplied by the USA.
1948: German weaponry and cooperation to share it has led to some breakthroughs in Allied war technology.
1948: With allied production assistance, the Germans are maintaining their reputation for armoured excellence. In Allied service.
1948: Most other world nations are trying to profit out of the post-war world...China remains unalligned.
1948: Treaty between the USA, UK, France, Germany, Sweden, Finalnd, Norway Italy, Spain and the other European nations...The NATO accord.
1948: The Soviets have been sliding to a war footing in the last year, Stalin becoming ever more baleful and threatening in his speeches…
1948: Many believe the USSR is merely sabre-rattling, others think Stalin has his eyes on Western Europe.
1949: The USSR and the Soviet satellite states combine to form the Warsaw Pact, or WARPAC.
1949: The state of Russian military preparedness is known to be formidable. Growing worldwide concern at Stalin's intentions.
1949: The communications between East and West have diminished to a standstill in the last few weeks of 1949.
1950: In the US and Europe, Russian Diplomats return to the USSR...
1950: Stalin Makes pledge to assure Russian hegemony, Now the world is again on the brink of war...
Many tales abound of a new Russian aircraft, jet-powered, and more than a match for any allied fighter...
Also the USA is unsure of the Russian nuclear programme, a dangerous and unknown quantity...
There are sure to be many surprises in any upcoming war...

Also all people are welcome to suggest events, wonders and units you'd like to see used.
Historical accuracy is not paramount as some weapon designs are rushed forward a bit to have them take part in this battle...

Looks great, but your list of events did not seem to settle the war in the Pacific. Whatever America decided with Germany, it (and the UK) could never have peaceably permitted the Japanese to make a peace without destroying it and taking back those lands lost to the Japanese (Philippines, Guam, etc. Dutch East Indies, Hong Kong, and probably China, too). Perhaps the war continued, with the use of atomics in Japan while Soviet troops poured into Manchuria and Korea and the Allied fleets stripped Japan of her offshore islands. At the same time, Chinese nationalists, aided by an influx of American troops and money, pushed out the Japanese and then turned on the Communists, throwing them out of Southern and Eastern China and into the North and West.

No, your right it is a Canadian unit. Jim Panse's Market Garden thread.
Edit: Also, America gets F-4 Phantoms?! Whats the end date for this scenario?
