Instead of the "WW3 in May 1946" scenario, is it possible to decapitate the western atomic bomb efforts before the end of WW2? How does the USSR delay the Western development of the atomic bomb? Who do they assassinate? Or kidnap? What infrastructure do they blow up or otherwise sabotage? What do they steal? What documents need to be destroyed? What mines need to be sabotaged? Which Phyiscs departments need to be targeted? Which Generals have to be killed? How would this all be done simultaneously? How would such a massive operation be carried out? Could it be made to look like the Nazis did it? How much time could be bought by such an operation? How would it affect allied war planning towards the end of WW2? Would the Soviets be able to march against the West with confidence if they chose to once the Germans were defeated? ASB this, ASB that... I know, I know, just play along anyway. It's still an interesting AH scenario, and besides, I'm not 100% sure it's entirely ASB... This is of course inspired by Hairog's and Rex Romanum's threads.
