The European colonial empires end in the 1920s and early 30s. By 1940 Europe is a post-apocalyptic wasteland. The PCs are part of an expeditionary force to try to establish areas of order to begin rebuilding.

Basically, it's the middle section of Things to Come the PCs are American GIs doing the job Wings Over the World had in the movie. Combat and diplomacy in an anrachic Europe. Do you want the talk to the BOSS or his Woman?

'Trotsky wins in Warsaw' is Reality Seed from GURPS Alternate Earths 2 - though it imagines him as an alternate Napoleon, bringing The Revolution to The Continent by force.
