As usual everyone forgets that the battles in Western Europe were pathetic skirmishes compared to the titanic battles of the Eastern front.
If the USSR hadn't absorbed and then virtually cut the heart out of the Wehrmacht on the outskirts of Moscow, Stalingrad, and Kursk and continued the campaign until Berlin was theirs (funny how the Germans didn't have the stomach to turn it into their own sort of Stalingrad) any Anglo-American campaign in the West would've been doomed to failure.
Germany's excellent troops and superior equipment would have won (though I admit the invention of the Panther and King Tiger would have been unlikely if the PzIII and PzIV tanks hadn't been having such a tough time against T-34's) any battle if the majority of their fighting strenght was deployed in the West and not the East.
So ... the USSR won WW2 (against Germany at ,against Japan the US kicked ass)

This question has ALMOST DEFINITELY already been asked but hey I'm new to the glory of CM (I WANT I WANT I WANT) and have to know if the REAL war against Germany will be represented.
