Just to broaden my rather feeble historical knowledge of the period a bit...
- How far could the US/British forces have realistically got in Europe after D-Day? Is OTL about as good as it gets, or could we see perhaps a free Hungary and Poland too?
- If it is possible for the Western Allies to get much further than they did in likelihood, what sort of Governments will we see set up east of Austria and West Germany? Will they be liberal democracies, or something more sinister?
- How does this impact upon the Marshall Plan and other aid programmes, assuming the United States has to aid reconstruction in a wider area than OTL?
