hands! This edition features the
notorious Russian civil war!

carefully and have fun!
Recommended for 18years or over.
A long time ago, in a country reasonably far away! The
was an immense revolution in November 1917 were the
Bolsheviks lead by one Lenin, successfully stormed the
winter palace were the cruel, lying provisional government
plotted there schemes against the their own people.
This Bolshevik uprising on the infamous `Red October`
was a symbolic victory and the people of Russia looked
forward to a world of `bread, peace and land` however this
is not what they got! And Russia soon found its-self
divided into two main denominations. It is now up to you
what path you want to take. Good luck.
White army
Red army
Hello! I am General Anton Denikin and I
am one of the many other Generals that
seem to make up our mess of a White
army. You may be wondering why it is we
seem to proceed in this civil war against
the infamous Reds! Well it is simple!
Lenin has messed everything up! What
happened to his promise? Bread, peace,
land! Ever since his coming to power I
have seen the exact opposite of this.
Come, walk with me.
Mission 1: Walk with General Denikin
Congratulations you have
joined the white army and
are now ready to take back
Russia from the Reds and
get the country back to its
former glory!
Go speak to our local general
to receive your first mission.
Plus you can get more
information about what we
do and why we do this
General
Take a look at this! In 1918 Lenin
signed the treaty of Brest-Litovsk in an
attempt to make peace with Germany!
However, this came with a price and
Germany took 32% of our farm land.
54% of our industry.26% of our
railways and 81% of our coal mines.
Furthermore, 34% of our population!
Lenins gamble is that the allies will
soon defeat Germany and we will get
our land back! Nevertheless, this is to
high a risk and to stupid an action. We
fight to restore our Land!
Also, the establishment of a
dictatorship during the constituent
assembly! This was were the
Bolsheviks lost the vote but
claimed it was rigged by the SRs
and used force to make the
opposition leave. We fight for fair
votes
Moreover, in July 1918 Lenin set the decree of
war communism enforced by his cheka!!! War
communism consists of
–Grain requisitioning (which has lead to
cannibalism)
-Bolshevik takeover of industry (which has
lowed producing by 20%)
-Labour conscriptions of 16-60 year olds ( which
has lead to the green army bandits forming)
-And the abolition of private trading ( which has
stopped capitalism altogether )
We fight for freedom, food and peace.
Finally , because of the Red terror! Were the
Bolsheviks tried to destroy the propertied
classes by encouraging the newly desperate
Russian people to loot their homes!
Pamphlets saying `war to the death to the
rich ` made this worse and the ransacked
houses were turned into workers homes.
Moreover, because of this outburst of violence
and crime, Lenin set up a counter revolution
called the cheka! They are in charge of
censorship as well as discipline at work and
during this civil war . They police his Red
army and kill thousands for dissertation
cruelly. We fight because this is morally
wrong.
Now you understand why it is we fight!
Now you must go and do likewise! We
have already pushed back the Red
influence so far they have now changed
the capital to Moscow. Now go, choose
how you want to help.
Join the Green army
Talk to the foreign
intervention
Help the Czech legion
Delivery
(Only start this mission
when all others are
completed )
Who are you? Oh, new guy I see! Guess
you want to know what were doing then.
Well in May, 1918, me and a group of
soldiers in the Czech Legion were falsely
accused of killing a man. The rest of the
Czech unit marched into town and freed
their comrades being held by local Red
Guards. When Leon Trotsky heard the
news he gave orders for the Czech
Legion to be disarmed. The 100,000
strong Czech Legion responded by joining
in the war against the Red Army. We are
know currently heading up the TransSiberian railway and are goanna try
retrieve our old Tsar to power and crush
the Reds. If you would like you can came
help us.
Go find the Tsar
It would seem that we are to late.
Lenin has murdered all figure heads
we could use to unite the White army.
Now I fear we will be forever un
coordinated an un-united. Anyway, the
Czech legion will continue the fight up
the train line. You should go find
General Denikin
Go to General Denikin
Resurrect yourself and go to
General Denikin
What!! Who are you??? Oh another
white army recruit I see! What's that?
What are the English doing in Russia.
Well I hardly say its any of your
business but since there's nothing
better to do I might as well let you
know. Basically we want your old Tsar
back. Well not literally because he's
dead but we want his ways back with
the land owners and the aristocrats.
Luckily your White army gives this so
the English, French, American and
Japanese are lending a hand. Anyway
I have to be off! Some of us are busy.
Good day.
Go to General Denikin
Aahhh good there you are. I
need you to go deliver some
supplies to some British
troops up near Moscow. Be
careful though. Lenis cheka
are trained interceptors so
watch were you go. Good
luck.

Congratulations! You have joined the Red
army. I am Leon Trotsky and I am the
commander of the Red army. Now don't you
worry. We are goanna win this war . Do you
know why. Its because we learn. Already Lenin
has realised how poorly the whites treat
peasants and so he has given up more land
and food for them to win there support. Already
he has seen the foreign support they are
receiving , so to win the people he is playing
the patriot card. Further still, I have started the
war train to quickly and efficiently move
supplies up and down or territory. And last of
all we have amazing inter-communication so
we can intercept most supplies. Anyway, you
have a job to do. You must go kill the old Tsar
and his family before the rouge Czech legion
find them first and make them into an icon.
Now go quickly
Kill the Tsar
Go back to Trotsky
Well done, that should keep
them a mess! From now on,
you will just be doing
interception work. Plan is we
pick of these divided rebels
one by one. Speaking of which,
our sources tell us there are
supplies being delved to some
British troops near Moscow .
Go quickly and kill them before
they reach there destination.
Intercept
