The idea of a Soviet attack on Nazi Germany in 1942 has been brought up a lot in WW2 related threads by some others and me, but not really in any detail, so I thought making a thread might be a good idea. Soviet records consistently show that offensive planning, reforms, and officer training would be completed by 1942, allowing a major offensive to be undertaken. Stalin wanted this to happen before Hitler was able to betray him, but all plans had to be postponed due to the Timoshenko Reforms. So I'm wondering what different scenarios could allow a Soviet attack on Nazi Germany (And postpone a Nazi attack) and what the results would be?
