Soviets vs. Allies in later game

[SpaceViking]

If the USSR crushes Germany early do they ever get "feisty" later against the allies? This appears to be happening in my current game as it is 1942 and the Germans never got more than a couple provinces deep past eastern Poland and have already lost a lot of that territory with some areas (and I assume, units) pocketed in the Baltic states.

They do, by event. It usually devolves into a LOOOONG tactical stalemate in a chokepoint where the sov's finally breach the US doomstacks and then rinse and repeat. Ive yet to see a USSR cold war where they win.

Any idea what the events are?

I know from past games when Germany falls the US ends up with an overall tech lead and their navy utterly rules the seas but the USSR has like 3x or more the number of divisions. Of course the US gets nukes, too. And sorry, UK, but usually by then you are stretched to almost breaking and don't make up for the numbers difference.

"The Cold War gets Hot" event.

trigger = {
NOT = {
war = { country = GER country = ENG }
war = { country = GER country = USA }
axis = 25
}
OR = {
control = { province = 1228 data = SOV } # Seoul, South Korea
control = { province = 1552 data = SOV } # Tokyo, Japan
control = { province = 2159 data = SOV } # Stockholm, Sweden
control = { province = 483 data = SOV } # Oslo, Norway
control = { province = 55 data = SOV } # Paris, France
control = { province = 122 data = SOV } # Amsterdam, Holland
control = { province = 116 data = SOV } # Brussels, Belgium
control = { province = 294 data = SOV } # Copenhagen, Denmark
control = { province = 109 data = SOV } # Luxembourg, Lux
control = { province = 419 data = SOV } # Rome, Italy
control = { province = 409 data = SOV } # Istanbul, Turkey
control = { province = 1085 data = SOV } # Iran
control = { province = 1035 data = SOV } # Baghdad, Iraq
control = { province = 1459 data = SOV } # Delhi, India
control = { province = 1247 data = SOV } # Beijing, China
control = { province = 1399 data = SOV } # Saigon, Vietnam
}
atwar = no
NOT = { atwar = SOV }
random = 30
}

So it looks like the Soviets have to control one of those spots and then random. Is the random part checked daily/monthly/what?

If i recall, its daily, at the 24/00 hour its checked.
