Does anyone know any scenario or Game elaborating a what if on Joint German/Allied attack or defense against Soviets at the end of hostilities. Reading history it looks like there was a slim possibility after the Second world war ended for such a case.
I have never come across such a scenario but you never know it can be somewhere

There was an old TOAW 1 scenario with a post-Valkyrie Germany facing Poland in the 50's. But if I recall correctly, no allies nor soviets.

I searched through my old library of older games (750+) and did not find anything. There were several with alternate history of Germany controlling Europe past end of WW2 and NATO attacking to liberate Europe from Nazis. None Germany/Allies vs Russia.

Closest thing I could find was a scenario that comes with TOAW IV "Patton 45", but this is a US vs Russia right after WW2 in Europe concludes. Germany defeated, not an ally.

Sounds like a pretty good scenario to have done though. This is one of the options German leaders considered, somehow coming to peace terms with Western Allies and getting assistance from them to face the "real" European threat, Bolshevism. Naturally the western allies saw Nazism as the greater threat and scoffed at any attempts in this direction, but it would be an excellent 'what if' scenario.

Thanks for looking. It seems very interesting not to have such scenario up to now.
