Much like Captain Miller in Saving Private Ryan, this campaign is "one I save just for me."
But maybe it will give you ideas.
Hitler is killed in WW1, without a dynamic figure to lead them the Nazi party fails to capture even a regional seat of government. Germany adopts democracy in the form of a parliament, a prime minister, and presidency. It is able to survive the economic depression by securing forgiveness of war reparations and the abolition of its imperial style government.
The League of Nations, instead of folding, is drastically redesigned, becoming much more like the UN. One of the key requirements for membership is a democratically elected government. Russia is refused membership.
Russia begins to expand its influence by supporting Communist movements in Europe and China, and expand its borders by invading eastern Europe, from Sweden in the North to Bulgaria in the South.
Japan, having fought with Russia for several decades over territorial disputes, joins the League of Nations. Internally, the representative government is able to fight off militarists. The emperor remains a figure head. When China falls to the Communists, military planners realize the threat and convince the government to authorize a military buildup, including a large and modern air force.
Chinese nationalists, unable to convince the League of Nations (LON) to send troops and equipment, surrender to the Communists. The Chinese Communists quickly begin to build a massive military, intent on "freeing Asia from the curse of Capitalistic Empires." They first invade Southeast Asia and Korea. Realizing Japan is too well defended to launch an all out assault, China begins to sweep south from Vietnam in an attempt to encircle and cut off Japan.
The stage is set for an alternative World War II.
In my personal campaign I story lines for pilots from Germany, Hungary, and America, starting in 1936 or so.
With so much modding now going on the possibilities are endless.
