I was thinking about doing a World War 3 timeline, except COLOSSAL. I mean on a day by day scale like a book I have except that is WWII. It would be NATO v Warsaw Pact, conventional (mainly) but I dont know when the POD could be... suggestions? Please provide details of how it boiled over into war as well and I'll do the rest :D

EDIT: It will be newspaper article based :)

'Day-by-day'?

It'd be hard to stretch it out to an hour and still have functional combatants left.

To keep it primarily conventional, you need a POD before 1960 at the latest. Late 1950s seems like a pretty good bet.

I was thinking about doing it during the Berlin Airlift/Blockade crisis.
 
I propose a 80's scenario:

No afghan invasion (nor needed nor worthful...)
Due to its socialists rulers France exits NATO.
WP invades Yugoslavia after Tito's death.

How to avoid nuke issue?... mmmm May be a Pope's appeal?...

Hey, why don't you finish Downfall first! This is a colossal undertaking, so don't rush on it.

To be fair, I think I didn't do Downfall very well.... I was far too concise and I made several inaccuracies and I just couldnt produce a quality TL.... Maybe I could restart it some other time...
