Or, on the opposite side, gather all patriots and reform the elite divisions that shall save Holy Mother Russia. Can you succeed in crushing the Bolshevik hydra? Or will the people’s Revolution prevail? Several sides are playable: Trotsky’s Red Army, Denikin’s white counterrevolutionary forces of Southern Russia , Kolchak’s Siberians, Finnish from both sides, or the newly independent Polish troops led by Marshal PiÅ‚sudski.
