Chuck,

What I suddenly realized as I was replying to John earlier is that it "has" 
to be difficult for the Soviet player to transition from Limited War to 
Total War or the game gets broken.

When the Soviet player Declares War on Germany he is under no obligation to 
actually invade anywhere.  He merely gets another 60 Production points and 
moves from Peacetime Production to Limited War Production.  It is now up to 
the German player to react.  If the German player does nothing, the Soviet 
player has gained an enormous advantage in terms of production.  In 
addition, the Soviet player is now free to evacuate all his Arms Centers, 
move his TC's and disregard any deployement requirements.

If as you suggest the Soviets go to Total war as soon as the Axis troops 
cross the border into Russia then then things really start to come apart 
quickly.
