* MeleeATrois: Between the INFOR, Co-Prosperity SPhere, and SARPAC.

In its place, two geopolitical blocs dominated the new world: the International Workers' Armed Forces (INFOR), a military alliance of Western European socialist republics created to facilitate the rise of socialism around the world, and the Saratov Pact (SARPAC), a sphere in Eastern Europe carved out by the Russian National Republic to defend Russia's interests and stem the growing tide of socialism. As dust settles over Europe, INFOR and SARPAC have turned their gaze to each other as threats to their ideological dominance over the world, leading to the start of a new kind of war, a ''UsefulNotes/ColdWar''.

The old world may lie shattered and broken, but two new ones yet struggle against each other to be born. Will the world rise up in Revolution, heed the call of National Republicanism, or stick steadfastly to the dreams of a past no longer present? Only time will tell what the day at the end of the Red Night will bring.

** The Cold War, fought between the victors of the Second Weltkrieg, in general is a mirror of the OTL UsefulNotes/ColdWar, only with the ideologies swapped. Instead of liberal democracies in the west and the Soviet Union with its allies in the east, the socialist governments are in the west and Russia and her allies are right-wing.

* AlternateHistory: Beyond being an unofficial sequel to [[VideoGame/KaiserreichLegacyOfTheWeltkrieg Kaiserreich]] where Germany won the first world war, Krasnacht is an alternate history to the OTL Cold War between NATO and the Warsaw Pact, with the factions flipped.

* TheRemnant: The remnants of the British, German, and Portuguese Empires in Australia, New Zealand, and their [[EvilColonialist Southern African colonies]] have banded together into a single, isolated faction, trying to hold on to what they have.

* TheRemnant: The remnants of the British and German Empires in their [[EvilColonialist Southern African colonies]] have banded together into a single, isolated faction, trying to hold on to what they have.

* AllNationsAreSuperpowers: Played with. There is no overarching hyperpower who wields more influence than any other state, but there are great powers that struggle for influence.
** The Empire of Japan is technically the most powerful of all major powers as it's the only nation to not wage a destructive war in its sovereign territory. As such, with an intact industry and an expanded market by gobbling up German colonies into its sphere of influence, Japan has the largest navy and a thriving economy.

* {{Portmanteau}}: "Krasnacht" is a combination of the Russian word "krasnaya" ("red") and the German word "nacht" ("night").

The year is 1950. It has been nearly 7 years since the end of the [[UsefulNotes/WorldWarII Second]] [[VideoGame/KaiserreichLegacyOfTheWeltkrieg Weltkrieg]], and the collapse of both the Reichspakt and the remnants of the Entente at the hands of the [[CommieLand Third Internationale]] and the [[PuttingOnTheReich Russian State]] both in Europe and North America, leading to the utter disintegration of liberal capitalism around the world, with only a few small pockets of the old world left remaining.

* AtomicHate: Interestingly, neither INFOR nor SARPAC are nuclear powers; the nuclear development is still in its infancy for both superpowers.

* TheRemnant: The remnants of the British and German Empires in their [[EvilColonialist Southern African colonies]] have banded together into a single faction, trying to hold on to what they have and pursuing impossible dreams of restoring their Empires.

The year is 1950. It has been nearly 5 years since the end of the [[UsefulNotes/WorldWarII Second]] [[VideoGame/KaiserreichLegacyOfTheWeltkrieg Weltkrieg]], and the collapse of both the Reichspakt and the remnants of the Entente at the hands of the [[CommieLand Third Internationale]] and the [[PuttingOnTheReich Moscow Accord]] both in Europe and North America, leading to the utter disintegration of liberal capitalism around the world, with only a few small pockets of the old world left remaining.

And in its place rise two geopolitical blocs and nuclear superpowers: the International Workers’ Armed Forces (INFOR), a military alliance formed from the European members of the Third Internationale created to facilitate the rise of socialism around the world, and the Saratov Pact (SARPAC), a sphere in Eastern Europe carved out by the Russian National Republic to push the far-right ideology of its Vozhd, Boris Savinkov: "[[ANaziByAnyOtherName National Renewal]]".

Now that the dust has settled however, INFOR and SARPAC have turned their gaze to each other as threats to their ideological dominance over the world, leading to the start of a new kind of war, a ''UsefulNotes/ColdWar''.

The old world may lie shattered and broken, but two new ones yet struggle against each other to be born.

Only time will tell what the day at the end of the Red Night will bring.

* ANaziByAnyOtherName: Much like in [[VideoGame/KaiserreichLegacyOfTheWeltkrieg the home game]], the far-right Saratov Pact, led by Boris Savinkov's Russian National Republic, is the closest analogue to UsefulNotes/NaziGermany.

* AllohistoricalAllusion: The Cold War in general is a mirror of the OTL UsefulNotes/ColdWar, only with the ideologies swapped. Instead of liberal democracies in the west and the Soviet Union with its puppets in the east, the socialist governments are in the west and Russia and her allies are right-wing.

* BalkaniseMe: Much like in our timeline, Germany is divided between east and west. Though now it's a socialist government in the west and right-wing government in the east.

* DemotedToExtra: Played with in regards to syndicalism. It still exists but rather than being its own ideology, it has been split into various ideologies though libertarianism is the one closest to the main game's concept of syndicalism.
** Played straight with Totalism, which has completely vanished into irrelevance by 1950 (the game starting date).

* PuttingOnTheReich: Much like in [[VideoGame/KaiserreichLegacyOfTheWeltkrieg the home game]], Savinkov's Russia and SARPAC are the closest analogue to UsefulNotes/NaziGermany.

* DemotedToExtra: Played with in regards to syndicalism. It still exists but rather than being it's own ideology, it has been split into various ideologies though libertarianism is the one closest to the main game's concept of syndicalism.

* CommieLand: INFOR and its aligned nations are the bastion of socialism in the world and the main opponents of SARPAC on the global stage.

* IAmNotShazam: The actual main socialist military alliance is INFOR while the Third International is simply a diplomatic forum between socialist parties, trade unions and activist groups.

''Krasnacht: Twilight of the Gods'' is a ''VideoGame/HeartsOfIronIV'' GameMod and a sequel to ''VideoGame/KaiserreichLegacyOfTheWeltkrieg'' set during the ensuing cold war.

* AlternateHistory: Beyond being an unofficial sequel to [[VideoGame/KaiserreichLegacyOfTheWeltkrieg Kaiserreich]] where Germany won the first world war, Krasnacht is an alternate history to the OTL Cold War between NATO and the Warsaw Pact.

Now that the dust has settled however, INFOR and SARPAC have turned their gaze to each other as threats to their ideological dominance over the world, leading to the start of a new kind of war. A ''UsefulNotes/ColdWar''.
