The desperate leadership of a doomed Soviet Union travels back in time to change history and restore the glory of Mother Russia.
The mission goes awry, creating an alternate timeline where technology has followed an entirely different evolution, a new superpower has been thrust on to the world stage, and World War III is raging.
The Empire of the Rising Sun has risen in the East, making World War III a three-way struggle between the Soviets, the Allies, and the Empire, with armies fielding powerful over-the-top weapons and technologies such as Tesla coils, Kirov war blimps, massive samurai robots, armoured bears, dolphins with sonic weapons, floating island fortresses, and transforming tanks.
