It's like... extra paranoia and danger!

You wouldn't really need to change very much, would you? The outline of the conspiracy plot and the mytharc would remain more or less in place. I think, in this version, Mulder would be a detective in Moscow, Scully a pathologist -- they are both Party members, of course, Scully more of a believer than Mulder. It's set in the 30s. Krycek is the NKVD mole in Mulder's department. I suspect that a lot of plots revolve around Mulder chasing elements of the conspiracy and finding real atrocities -- work camps, confiscations, famines.

The main difference would be one of tone -- the danger being that much closer. And of course, as one gets closer to the end of the decade, the looming threat of Hitler and war: by 1941, Mulder might know enough to do some damage to the regime, but should he?

This would be pretty cool.
