After all the horror is over, it forces you either to observe a dead world (there are post-apocalyptic events for those who wait a bit after the end) or simply quit the campaign.

** One of the experiments of Lysenko is a direct reference to the infamous {{creepypasta}} about the Russian Sleep Experiment. If you have read it before, you know how it goes: five subjects, under the promise of freedom by the end of experiments to calm them down during the whole process, are forced to stay awake for a duration of several weeks in an isolated chamber. At first the prisoners show no signs of discomfort during the first five days, but at the sixth day, they start to experience serious psychological issues, including paranoia and psychosis, only for symptoms to suddenly cease near the end of the experiments. When the NKVD guard personnel and researchers tries to enter the chamber, expecting the experiment to be finished, the subjects attack the entering group and murder most of them in cold blood before they are terminated by the NKVD guards.

*** One of his most horrifying executions is TelevisedTorture during which suffering and pleas of prisoners are recorded and sent to Germany before they are killed. It becomes even more gruesome when the partisans execute Meyer-Landrut's loyalists, as most of them are young people who still have their families in Germany, who will listen to their last moments before death. It's even worse when you remember that Meyer-Landrut and his supporters are reform-minded progressives who are very vocally opposed to the excesses of the nazi system. Kovner's rampage will spare no one, even people who are by accounts just as committed to dismantling the cruel nazi hierarchy (albeit in a far less extreme and hypocritically violent fashion).

** And what is Kovner's endgame in Ostland? Simple, [[SaltTheEarth burn it all down]]. He is perfectly aware that he can't stay in power for long and that his state will be smacked down by Germany as soon as they glance on it after the Civil War, and the only purpose he seeks in Ostland is to kill as many Germans as possible (which also includes not only systematic murder of the German settlers in the Baltics, but also poisoning food coming from Ukraine and other colonies to Germany during the Civil War), leave Ostland a torched and uninhabited land so the Reich can't make any use of it and escape with his Jewish henchmen and chosen natives who proved their loyalty to him. Only in genocide and destruction that would affect not only German civilians, but the natives too, Kovner's desire for revenge would be satisfied. It's the kind of extensive, intricately-planned inhumanity that could only come about under prolonged nazi rule.

** Even Kovner's ''face'' in his portrait speaks to the immense inhumanity of the situation. Although it's a real-life photo of him when he was older, the way he's digitally altered is surprisingly unnerving. The long years he's spent as a partisan have made him ugly and haggard, to the point where there isn't a single trace of basic kindness or human warmth left in visage. His cold, vacant expression reflects how all his humanity has withered away. Where there was once a man, only a vindictive, pain-filled monster now remains.

*** While Vituska manages to avoid his fate, the same couldn't be said about his supporters, who are mostly consisting of the native population of the German colony. Kovner even ignores pleas of his native supporters to spare their "brothers" and "sisters", promising to himself to "deal" with them later.

* Abba Kovner's ReignOfTerror in Ostland. If you expect the most anti-fascist faction in Ostland to be the least terrifying one, think again. Growing more and more vengeful against Germany for more than 20 years of genocide and oppression, Kovner became every bit as cruel as the Nazis he opposes to, if not already exceeded most of them.
** His post-victory focuses are named "Enforced Famine", "The New Plague", "Death to the Natives" and "Six Million Germans". Even without description, they are the most demonstrative about Kovner's goals.
** His execution events that appear every time another faction is defeated are very brutal and unpleasant, even for such [[AssholeVictim Asshole Victims]] as other contenders.
** And what is Kovner's endgame in Ostland? Simple, [[SaltTheEarth burn it all down]]. He is perfectly aware that he can't stay in power for long and that his state will be smacked down by Germany as soon as they glance on it after the Civil War, and the only purpose he seeks in Ostland is to kill as many Germans as possible (which also includes not only systematic murder of the German settles in the Baltics, but also poisoning food coming from Ukraine and other colonies to Germany during the Civil War), leave Ostland a torched and uninhabited land so the Reich can't make any use of it and escape with his Jewish henchman and chosen natives who proved their loyalty to him.

!''General''



** The Wehrmacht ordinary soldiers take it easy under Heydrich: they are forever dishonored and treated like maybe only slightly better than criminals. The officers, however? [[LotteryOfDoom Aside from that every tenth of them gets executed]], others will be tracked down [[IHaveYourWife with their families]], tried for their betrayal of Heydrich and tested for loyality, ending up on a firing line if they fail or living under the thumb of SS if they pass.
** Heydrich brings the concentration camp system to perfection. The guards are reduced to the same position as the slaves to make an example to their wards. The camps itself become isolated fortress that are hidden away from the public eye so there is no way in for intruders and no way out for slaves besides working to death.
** Even for Germans who work outside of the camps perspective aren't that bright. To make sure they completely fulfill their quotas, they are constantly watched by civilian commissars, and if they fail their Fatherland, one day they will disappear under the sounds of Gestapo helicopter rotor...

!''Old World Blues''

* Magnitogorsk:
** Most of events and focuses of Magnitogorsk are written in a very dry, technical style, similar to those of ''Wiki/SCPFoundation''. Cruel torture and lethal experiments imposed on masses of "test subjects" are written as mundane scientific reports, making the whole affair even more horrifying as you read the text of events and focuses more and more thoroughly.

* The entirety of Heydrich's focus tree. The very thought of Reinhard Heydrich, one of the darkest figures in the Third Reich, becoming the leader in Germany is disturbing [[EvenEvilHasStandards to even the majority of Nazis]]. And if he actually takes charge, he exceeds all their expectations...
** One of the very first things Heydrich does after the war is dealing with students. For their allegiance with Speer, Heydrich will either show his [[CruelMercy "merciful"]] nature by sending the young generation of Germans into concentration camps or just killing them all, giving a grim warning that his rule won't spare anyone who dares to go against the Reich.

* On a similar note, [[GeneralRipper Göring]] isn't much better than Heydrich, even if he's PlayedForLaughs with how his "economic plan" is basically pulling a giant BavarianFireDrill at home (while doing the old-fashioned RapePillageAndBurn plan to actually pay the bills), and how his SuicidalOverconfidence will lead to Germany more than likely burning itself out instead of successfully [[TakeOverTheWorld Taking Over The World]].
